18-Year-Old Abita Man Arrested After Report of Gunshots

Andrew Graves (18) of Abita Springs was arrested Wednesday afternoon (June 5, 2019) by St.
Tammany Parish Sheriff's deputies. Deputies had responded to reports of shots fired and a fight involving multiple subjects in the Covington-area neighborhood of Slemmer Road.

It was learned that a group of individuals had gathered in the area to fight and at some point Andrew Graves, one of the individuals, brandished a pistol. Before fleeing the area, witnesses told deputies, Graves fired the pistol multiple times, but nobody was struck.

Graves was located by STPSO deputies later that afternoon and taken into custody. While in custody and being transported, Graves caused damage to the interior rear door of a patrol unit.

He was booked into the St. Tammany Parish Jail on the charges of Assault by Drive by Shooting, Illegal Carrying of Weapons, and Simple Criminal Damage Less Than $1,000

Deputies located and recovered the firearm Graves previously discarded while fleeing the area.
