Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s deputies are wrapping up the search of a coulee.

Deputies were called to the scene by a fisherman, who said he snagged a clump of hair with the roots still attached. As of 5:30 p.m. the search hadn’t turned up anything and deputies were wrapping up.

The fisherman did not keep the hair, meaning deputies can’t run any forensic tests on it, a spokesman said.

We have a crew on the scene and will post updates as they are available.
