On May 3, officers responded to a home on East 16th Street in Larose in reference to a disturbance. Upon arrival, deputies learned Broussard had forced entry into his ex-girlfriend’s residence that morning. Following a verbal altercation, Broussard began hitting the woman. A juvenile was also in the home at the time. The woman shielded the juvenile as Broussard continued to strike her. Police say Broussard pulled a knife and began threatening the woman. He used the knife to slash the bed sheets and cut through the mattress while damaging several other items in the room. The victim was eventually able to escape to a neighbor’s home to call for help.
Deputies are asking for the public’s assistance in locating Broussard.
