During the investigation, Sheriff Pohlmann said, as agents were conducting surveillance prior to executing a search warrant on a residence in the 2300 block of Trio Street in Chalmette, three male subjects, including one seen holding a handgun, exited the home and left in a vehicle.

When agents conducted a traffic stop on the vehicle, they noticed a strong odor of marijuana emitting from the vehicle, the Sheriff said.

The three male occupants, later identified as Justin Glenn, Mahogany and Duckett, were found to be in possession of marijuana, as well as a MasterPiece Arms Defender .9mm handgun, a Glock 22 .40 caliber handgun, and a Smith and Wesson .40 caliber handgun with a partially scratched serial number listed by the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office as stolen.

As agents executed the search warrant at the Trio Street residence, two male subjects, later identified as Lee and LeBlanc, fled the home through a second floor window, leaving behind LeBlanc’s 2-year-old child he shares with Tierian Glenn. Both Lee and LeBlanc were apprehended nearby.

Agents also recovered three additional handguns, including a Sig Sauer P250 .9mm, a Springfield XDM .45 caliber, and a Glock 17 .9mm.

Barbain and Tierian Glenn were both present at the home and were booked on the above listed charges.

A criminal history check was conducted on all subjects which revealed Justin Glenn, Mahogany and Lee all have prior felony convictions.

All subjects were transported to St. Bernard Parish Prison to be booked accordingly.
