St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office deputies responded late Saturday (May 16, 2026) night to reports of a large party involving juveniles in the Lakeshore Villages community in the Slidell area. When deputies arrived at a residence in the 6600 block of Delta Ridge Avenue, hundreds of juveniles dispersed from the area. Many then relocated to a nearby closed neighborhood playground, where multiple fights broke out.
Due to the size of the crowd and ongoing disturbances, additional deputies from other patrol districts, Louisiana State Police troopers and members of the Slidell Police Department were called in to assist with crowd control and maintaining order.
Arrested were
- Two male juveniles charged with Disturbing the Peace and Resisting Arrest.
- One male juvenile charged with Disturbing the Peace.
- One female juvenile charged with Resisting Arrest.
All arrested juveniles were released to their parents on custodial agreements to appear in court.
All other juveniles were required to leave the area, and no injuries were reported.
The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office reminds parents and guardians to be aware of their children’s whereabouts and activities, especially during large gatherings where situations can quickly get out of control.
Sheriff Randy Smith would like to thank the Louisiana State Police and the Slidell Police Department for their assistance in safely dispersing the large crowd and helping restore order to the area.
