This Week in Bossier

The bond between a mother and her son is a strong one, often times standing the test of time, divorce…or in the case of most Bossier families, police intervention.

Bossier sheriff’s deputies have arrested a Haughton mother and son on charges of disturbing the peace fighting, resisting an officer and more, a release from Sheriff Larry Deen says.

Belinda Jo Smith, 45, of the 1900 block of Bellevue Road, and John Christopher Lewis, 23, of Lexington, Ky., were arrested after a deputy on normal patrol noticed the two fighting and shoving one another around 4:30 p.m. Monday outsider her residence.

When the deputy approached the two, the woman told her son to get inside and told the deputy that he couldn’t stop and talk to her and said “if he knew what was best for him he would leave,” the release said. The two remained inside their residence and refused to be identified until the deputy’s backup arrived. They two remained extremely uncooperative, the release said.

But what could have brought the rift between these two so closely bound together by blood and Bossier birthright?  Gun play, of course.

Deputies interviewed neighbors who had witnessed the incident, and the neighbors told deputies that John Lewis had been outside shooting high-powered rifles in the back yard. Due to a previous felony arrest for marijuana possession, Lewis is not supposed to be around firearms, so he faces an additional charge of possession of a firearm by a felon, the release said.

    Nice LOST reference. I always pictured Shreverport as the inspiration for LOST Island.
