Suspect Sought in Slidell-Area Shooting

The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office is looking for James Salvant (19), a Slidell man in connection with a shooting that occurred Thursday evening (November 14) near Slidell.

The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office responded to the area of Coast Boulevard in Slidell in reference to reports of gunshots being heard. A subject, in what is believed to be a silver or white Toyota Corolla, fired upon a second vehicle, which was occupied at the time by four individuals, as the two vehicle drove down Coast Boulevard.  The suspect vehicle then fled the area. After being fired upon, the driver of the other vehicle also attempted to leave the area but crashed into another vehicle near the intersection of Old Spanish Trail and Coast Boulevard.

No injuries were reported as a result of the gunfire nor the crash.

Friday afternoon, detectives obtained a warrant for the arrest of Salvant in connection with the shooting. Salvant is wanted for one count of Illegal Use of a Firearm and four counts of Aggravated Assault with a Firearm.

Anyone with information about the whereabouts of James Salvant is asked to call the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Officer at (985) 898-2338.
