Louisiana: Sheriff Joseph Lopinto reports that the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office is investigating a homicide and a deputy-involved shooting that occurred this morning in River Ridge.

Around 4:00 am, deputies were called to a residence in the 10000 block of Stephen Dr. after receiving a report that multiple people were shot inside the location.
