On Thursday, May 15, 2025, the Thibodaux Police Department’s S.W.A.T. / Negotiation Team, Narcotics Division, Criminal Investigations Division and Patrol Division conducted a search warrant in the 1200 block of St. Charles Street. The search warrant was a result of a lengthy joint narcotics investigation that occurred for months prior to the search warrant.

The search of the residence resulted in the recovery of approximately 2.5 Pounds of suspected Marijuana, packaging materials, digital scales and three handguns, one of which was reported stolen from Texas.

All three suspects were interviewed and later taken to the Lafourche Parish Correctional Complex, where they remain. Three juveniles who were on scene at the time of the search warrant were released to an adult family member without incident.

Chief Zeringue would like to take this time to commend the joint effort on this investigation by the Thibodaux Police Department, Houma Police Department, Louisiana State Police and the Office of Homeland Security.
