Near city’s busiest intersection

quote:

Police said 71-year old Slidell resident Benjamin Talton shot 45-year old Matthew Ledet just after 2 p.m. this afternoon.

quote:

Police were unclear about the initial altercation that apparently triggered the road rage, but they said that at some point, they believe Ledet intentionally stopped his Honda Pilot SUV on Tyler St., exited his vehicle and "forcefully struck" the hood of Talton's Honda Ridgeline truck.

quote:

As Ledet retutrned to his vehicle, Talton exited his truck with a pistol and confronted Ledet. At some point during the encounter, Talton fired one shot, which struck Ledet in the arm. The men then drove to a Chevron gas station only a block away at the intersection of Gause Blvd. and Tyler St. Ledet phoned police from that location, police said.


Baw gets out his Honda Pilot and strikes old baw’s Honda Ridgeline. Younger baw walks back to his vehicle and old baw shoots him in the arm.

Younger guy was pissed because he was driving his wife’s minivan.

Older guy wasn’t going to allow my some minivan pansy to get away with touching his Ridgeline.

I read in the Facebook comments that the older man is a military vet and just lost his wife last month. Sad situation.

I bet the old man doesn’t get out of his car in traffic and bang on someone else’s hood again

ETA: misread. Young man ain’t gonna be banging on someone else’s hood. Good for the old man putting that whipper snapper in his place

Imagine if he would have sprayed him in the face with a water hose

Not a wise move, in retrospect.
