On May 17, 2021, deputies with the Livingston Parish Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to Old River Road in Maurepas in reference to a burglary in progress.
Sheriff Jason Ard says deputies located one male, with a gunshot wound to the torso, deceased on scene and another male in need of medical attention for ongoing medical issues. That male, the homeowner, was transported to a local hospital for treatment.
Further investigation revealed the two males were acquaintances prior to this incident. Ard said detectives were still combing through the evidence. They know there was an altercation between the two males leading up to deputies being called.
As of late yesterday no arrests had been made in this case.
