Lafourche Parish Sheriff Craig Webre and Golden Meadow Chief of Police Michelle Lafont announced the arrest of an 18-year-old for the attempted murder of two relatives. Airron Billiot, 18, of Galliano, was arrested Tuesday night following a stabbing incident at a Golden Meadow residence.

At around 10:20 p.m. on November 4, 2025, LPSO deputies and officers with the Golden Meadow Police Department responded to a domestic incident at a residence on North 2nd Street. Billiot was reportedly armed with a knife and was attacking family members. When officers arrived, they located Billiot, who surrendered and was immediately taken into custody. They found two women – one in her 60s and one in her 30s – who each had a knife wound in the neck. Both were transported to the hospital for treatment.

Through investigation, detectives learned Billiot had been involved in a disturbance with family members throughout the day. At one point, Billiot reportedly threatened to kill everyone in the house. He allegedly armed himself with a knife and struck each of the women in the neck. During questioning, Billiot admitted to his involvement.

Billiot was arrested for two counts of attempted second degree murder. He was booked into the Lafourche Parish Correctional Complex in Thibodaux. Bail is set at $500,000.

Let me clear this up some, we, The Town of Golden Meadow, are putting these rules in place to make it legal for you to ride your golf carts, side-by-sides, and UTVs on the shoulder of the road. At this time it is illegal and we should be ticketing and towing your vehicles for riding them on the side of the road. These rules were made by DOTD and signed by the governor for us to give you the right to ride them on the shoulder of LA-1. If these rules are not established, you will not be allowed to ride on the side of the road anymore and we will start enforcing the state law. Golf carts and side-by-sides do not have the same rules. I understand that the paragraph that includes the components each must have is confusing. The golf carts do not need the same components as the side-by-sides and UTVs. The golf carts must be equipped with headlamps, front and rear turn signal lamps, tail lamps, stop lamps, reflex reflectors, one red reflector on the rear, an exterior mirror mounted on the driver’s side of the vehicle and either an exterior mirror mounted on the passenger’s side of the vehicle or an interior mirror, a parking brake, and a windshield.

Also let me add that there are some things that you will have a voice on, but when it comes to the laws established and signed by the governor, we have no leeway if we want this to pass.
