SHREVEPORT, La. -- A man wanted in a murder attempt last month was arrested Wednesday through a joint effort.

Shreveport police had been looking for Alvin Robinson, 48, in connection with a shooting during the early morning hours of Nov. 25. Officers responded to the 1400 block of West 59th Street and found a gunshot victim. He was taken to the hospital, where he underwent surgery and is expected to make a full recovery.
