The grand jury also returned an indictment in the same case against Jacob Sloan, age 27 and of Abita Springs, for Obstruction of Justice and Accessory after the Fact to Second-Degree Murder.

Previous reporting (click here to read) indicated that shortly before midnight, St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to a residence in the 73000 block of Tee Street near Talisheek after a neighbor reported hearing gunshots and observed a man who appeared to be deceased outside a neighboring residence. The neighbor also reported seeing a vehicle fleeing the area. Responding deputies located the body of the male victim, later identified as Jon McIntyre, lying by the front door of the residence.

Deputies had interactions with McCann and Sloan earlier in the day in connection with an ongoing argument between the McIntyre and one of the men. STPSO deputies located McCann and Sloan and they were taken into custody without incident. Evidence from the scene and statements provided during the investigation identified McCann as the shooter and that Sloan had provided assistance by bringing McCann to and from the location.
