La. Deputy Marshall Fatally Shot while Serving Warrant

A Louisiana deputy marshal was killed while serving a warrant Monday.

The shooting happened as Ville Platte Deputy Marshal Barry Giglio was helping Evangeline Parish sheriff's deputies execute a warrant at a residence, The Acadiana Advocate reports. Giglio and a civilian were fatally shot in the incident, and a law enforcement officer and another person were critically wounded.

“This tragedy is yet another reminder of the sacrifices men and women in law enforcement make each and every day when they put on their uniform and badge, not knowing if they’ll come home to their families at the end of each day," Ville Platte Mayor Ryan LeDay Williams said in a statement. "Deputy Marshal Giglio’s ultimate sacrifice in service of his community will never be forgotten."

Williams said that the shooting is still under investigation, and police are still trying to determine what transpired.
