A Chackbay man is in custody of the Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office after authorities found drugs, weapons and cash at his residence.

Throughout the course of an investigation, narcotics agents obtained a search warrant for the home of Justin Zeringue, 24, of Chackbay. The residence is on Meadow View Court.

On Nov. 7, agents arrived at the residence and made contact with the suspect. During a search of the residence, agents seized 135 grams of suspected high-grade marijuana and more than 50 packages of substances containing THC concentrate.


They also seized 36 Xanax pills, 30 hydrocodone pills, two semi-automatic handguns, approximately $1,300 in cash and a large amount of suspected paraphernalia.

Agents also discovered two large bottles containing suspected promethazine and 11 empty bottles which once contained the legend drug, according to LPSO.

Zeringue was arrested and booked into the Lafourche Parish Detention Center. He is charged with possession with intent to distribute Hydrocodone, Xanax, Marijuana and legend drugs. He was also charged with possession of drug paraphernalia and illegal carrying of a weapon in the presence of a controlled dangerous substance.
