Shooting in LaPlace Plant Parking lot

[Vigilante Sniper]

This is near my subdivision, my daughter is a nurse at the hospital and said they are on lockdown. She also said that I know the deputies, but can't tell me who they are. I am friends with many SJSO deputies and see them at the range.

The parking lot is where the construction workers park and are bused to the plant. There is always some road rage in the area with everyone trying to turn off Airline.

St. John the Baptist Parish Sheriff Mike Tregre will hold a news conference at approximately 9 a.m. to release more information. WWL Radio will carry that news conference live.

Valero Energy released the following statement:

This morning there was a shooting involving law enforcement officers providing security at an off-site parking lot used by contractors working at the Valero St. Charles Refinery. Valero employees offer their thoughts and prayers to the officers and the families of the officers involved in the shooting. Refinery operations have not been affected. The incident remains under investigation, and questions about the incident itself should be referred to local law enforcement. Any contractor who normally parks in the Montz lot should not report to work today. All other employees and contractors should report as scheduled.

ArcelorMittal Laplace, remains under lockdown. Employees are asked to call the ArcelorMittal Laplace information line at 888-880-3677 for more information on reporting to work and plant status.

Wonder if there's any alert to the neighborhood ?? I watched some of the live video but they weren't saying anything about remaining shooters. If I lived around there I'd want to know.

The reporter on the live feed said he didn't think there was a danger to surrounding areas.

What prompted this craziness?

Thanks SlimPickins!

I cannot listen from work. Someone keep us posted on what was said.

We had no neighborhood alerts, they did go to the houses on River Road and notify them as they are still searching for 1 suspect who ran into the woods. My son in law works at the Steel plant and they were sent home. There will be a press conference at 9am from our sheriff.

Hear this on Walton & Johnson this morning, this is terrible, RIP to the officer killed, and I hope they catch these oxygen thieves quickly and without anymore injuries.

To bad it is not "2 shooters dead, hunt continues". I don't care to hear their reasons why they did it.

My internet is blocked also. What is the current status?

They just had a spokesman on from st John and he avoided the question like the plague.

Because if he has no confirmed information to give then there is nothing to say, and I'm sure they are very busy trying to apprehend the suspects. The sheriff will give an update around 9am they said.
