HAHNVILLE – A drive-by shooting damaged a Hahnville house while a Luling bedroom window curtain was set afire in unrelated incidents this week. Arrests were made in both cases.

Capt. Patrick Yoes of the St. Charles Parish Sheriff’s Office reported the arrests of Clark B. Bergeron, 17; Michael E. Wager, 35, both of 122 Champagne Lane in Hahnville; and a 15-year-old male juvenile in connection with the Nov. 15 shooting incident on Hahn Street.

Yoes continued that Wager was apparently upset about a telephone call he received, and he took to the street in a vehicle, along with the two teen-agers.

As Wager drove along Hahn Street at 8:55 p.m., Bergeron allegedly fired several times randomly at a house, shattering a window and endangering the three occupants of the house.

No one in the house was injured, Yoes added.

Following an investigation and based on statements gathered, the trio were arrested Wednesday in Hahnville. All three were charged with aggravated criminal damage to property and Wager was additionally charged with contributing to the delinquency of a juvenile.

“From all indications at this point, that house was randomly picked,” Yoes added.

Wager was also booked on outstanding warrants for disturbing the peace, failure to pay a fine and cruelty to animals.

In the other incident, Cassandra A. Lirette, 44, of 265 Tregle Lane in Des Allemands, was charged with aggravated arson after she allegedly set fire to the bedroom curtains of her boyfriend’s residence.

Lirette and her 52-year-old boyfriend had gotten into an argument Thursday just after midnight in the upstairs part of his home. She went downstairs, set fire to his curtains and drove away.

He yanked down the curtains and stomped them out before calling the sheriff’s office, Yoes said.

At 1:39 a.m., Lirette was stopped by a deputy not far from the scene.

She was booked with aggravated arson and remains in custody with a $50,000 bond set.
