A man wanted in connection with a Bossier City armed robbery was located at University Health following an exchange of gunfire Wednesday.

Police say the robbery happened around 1:30 p.m. in the parking lot of Homewood Suites in the 2000 block of Old Minden Road in Bossier City.

A man was sitting in his vehicle when an armed male approached him and demanded his wallet and his cell phone, said Bossier City Police spokesperson Mark Natale.

The victim complied and the suspect — later identified as Camron Deon Williams, 20, of Shreveport — began to walk away. The robbery victim then armed himself and followed Williams, Natale said.

The robbery victim and Williams then exchanged gunfire, with Williams firing several rounds at the victim who returned at least two shots. Williams then ran away from the scene.

The robbery victim was not hit, but Williams showed up about 30 minutes later at University Health for treatment.

Natale said officers were sent to the hospital, but Williams was admitted for observation.

The victim's wallet was recovered Williams dropped it at the scene. The cell phone was recovered by police at the hospital.

Detectives have secured a warrant for Williams' arrest, charging him with armed robbery. He will be booked upon his release from the hospital, Natale said.

No charges will be filed against the victim in the robbery.
