According to Sheriff Bobby J. Guidroz “On September 7, 2023 deputies with the St. Landry Parish Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to 927 Highway 741 in Arnaudville regarding a domestic dispute.”
According to reports, Andre Landrio and his wife were arguing when he struck her. Deputies ordered Landrio to exit their vehicle and he refused. The Deputy then attempted to physically remove him from the vehicle, Landrio lunged at the deputy and attempted to grab the deputy’s firearm from his holster. When distance was created between the two, Landrio began approaching the deputy aggressively and grabbed his hand. They both fell to the ground and Andre Landrio again attempted to grab the deputy’s firearm and state that he was going to kill the deputy.
Landrio’s wife and a witness jumped into the vehicle and left the scene. Landrio then disengaged himself from the deputy, entered the witness’s vehicle and followed his wife, causing the two vehicles to crash. Andre Landrio then left the scene on foot.
Landrio was later apprehended by deputies on September 8, 2023 after a brief standoff. He was currently on bond and wearing an ankle monitor for Orleans Parish on 3 counts Attempted 2nd Degree Murder.
