Det. Regan with Eunice Police Department and Det. Thompson with St. Landry Parish Sheriff’s Office come to Crime Stoppers asking your help in solving a horrific murder.

Det. Regan – On May 31, 2026 at about 9:00 pm, Eunice PD received a call of shots fired in the area of 1040 Vivian Avenue. The first responding officer found a victim with multiple gunshot wounds in a pickup truck. The officer immediately rendered life-saving aid to the victim, who regrettably died from his injuries.

Det. Thompson – Because the crime scene was just outside the Eunice City limits, the St. Landry Parish Sheriff’s Office was immediately notified of the incident. Detectives went to the scene, where a large number of spent casings were found. This appears to have been a specifically targeted attack. Video surveillance from the area has provided some indications of what exactly happened, but more information is needed.
