Savanna Magee (or McGee), age 26 and of the Destrehan-area, is facing an Attempted Murder of a Police Officer charge after allegedly striking a St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's deputy with her vehicle Sunday night (August 2, 2026) near Slidell.
St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's deputies were dispatched to the 100 block of Windward Passage in reference to an intoxicated woman attempting to leave the residence in a vehicle. As the responding deputy attempted to remove Magee from the vehicle, Magee allegedly placed the vehicle in reverse, striking the deputy as she attempted to flee. A brief pursuit ensued before the vehicle came to a stop near the intersection of Oak Harbor Boulevard and Oak Court. Magee continued to resist arrest but was ultimately taken into custody.
Magee was booked into the St. Tammany Parish Correctional Center as Savanna McGee for Attempted Murder of a Police Officer, Unauthorized Use of a Movable, Simple Battery, Resisting Arrest and Driving While Impaired.
***All persons are presumed innocent until proven guilty***
The deputy was treated at the scene by emergency medical personnel for minor injuries and was transported to a local hospital for further evaluation as a precaution.
