A drug bust at a Houma home leads to six arrests says Terrebonne Parish Sheriff Tim Soignet.

Terrebonne Parish Sheriff’s Office says over the past several months, the sheriff’s office has received numerous complaints from multiple residents of suspicious activity, increased foot traffic, and possible drug activity from a home in the 100 block of Marie Drive near Houma.

Detectives began an investigation into the activity, which led to the arrest of 6 people.

On Tuesday, detectives responded to the complaints and made contact with several occupants of the home.

The sheriff says detectives spotted possible drug activity at the home and secured a search warrant.

“As the investigation continued, Detectives searched the residence and recovered amounts of Heroin, Methamphetamines, Marijuana, as well as several pieces of Drug Paraphernalia related items. Detectives arrested the following offenders in connection with the investigation, who were booked and jailed at the Terrebonne Parish Criminal Justice Complex,” said Sheriff Soignet in a press release.

Sheriff Soignet also said, “Our ability to bring offenders to justice is more effective when the community is involved.  I’m very happy that we were able to make this neighborhood a safer place for our residents.”
