Calvin Edwards II, 35, forcefully entered a Baton Rouge apartment over the weekend around 6 p.m. on Saturday. As the man was entering the apartment the resident pushed him back out of the door. On Cezanne Drive, a struggle between the resident and perpetrator broke out on the balcony, resulting in the “would be” robber pulling out a gun. The robber was planning to shoot the resident but the resident fought hard and in the end, the robber shot himself instead.

He was booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison where he is being held on a $125,000 bond.
