The St. Tammany Sheriff's reports that early Sunday (August 31, 2025) morning, a sailboat struck the Causeway near mile marker 14. A male and a female were onboard when the incident occurred. The male went overboard and the female was rescued from the vessel by the U.S. Coast Guard.
Rescue and recovery efforts began to find the male. The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries is leading this investigation. Members of the STPSO Marine Division are assisting, along with the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office and the U.S. Coast Guard.
The search was suspended at dark Sunday night, but the STPSO Marine Division was back out there at first light on Monday morning assisting Wildlife and Fisheries with the search.
