The St. Tammany Sheriff’s Office is looking for a St. Bernard man, who is wanted on murder charges, following a shooting which occurred Sunday in the Slidell area.
Detectives are asking for the public’s help in locating Derick Joseph Fehn (DOB 12/1/1991).
Fehn is wanted on a warrant for one count of Second-degree Murder, two counts of Attempted First-degree Murder and one count of Obstruction of Justice.
Shortly after 3 p.m. Sunday (April 17), STPSO deputies were dispatched to the 2000 block of Old Spanish Trail near Slidell in reference to a shooting. Detectives learned Fehn drove to the area Sunday afternoon after a days-long feud between his significant other and her sister. As he was approaching the sister’s residence, the sister, the victim and their small child exited the home and walked toward Fehn’s vehicle. At which time, Fehn pulled out a gun and fired upon the three individuals before driving off in what is believed to be a white, newer model Chevrolet pickup truck.
The sister and the child were not injured, but the sister’s 30 YO boyfriend sustained gunshot wounds. He was transported by medical personnel to an area hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.
Anyone with information about Derick Joseph Fehn is asked to contact Sgt. Adam Rudolph at (985) 726-7849.
