LABADIEVILLE – Assumption Parish deputies arrested a woman accused of trespassing at a Labadieville home, threatening its occupants with a gun and firing a shot while trying to enter the home.
Deputies responded to reports of trespassing at a Brusly Road home. According to deputies, 34-year-old Brittany Blanchard had been warned not to return to the home after a previous dispute.

While trying to make her way inside, Blanchard fired a shot at the home.
The gun was later recovered, and Blanchard was arrested on charges of aggravated assault, entering after being forbidden, resisting arrest, discharge of firearms and criminal mischief.
