SHREVEPORT — A man accused of viciously attacking an 86-year-old woman was arrested in Shreveport over the weekend.

Joe White, 72, allegedly "viciously attacked" the woman while she was delivering food to a Camelback Drive home. Police arrived to find her with multiple broken bones and lacerations on Saturday.

White then barricaded himself inside the home and was quickly arrested and booked on second-degree battery charges, police added.

"Despite the brutality of the assault, she is expected to survive thanks to quick action by first responders and medical staff," Shreveport Police said.
