The two adults charged were Kyron K. Thompson, 19, of 223 Daggs Street, Belle Rose, and Joshua L. Washington, 19, of 315 West 2nd Street, Donaldsonville.

The two juveniles charged by verified complaint were 17-year-old males from Belle Rose and Gonzales.

Assumption Parish deputies responded to the location and noted evidence consistent with the alleged crime, including multiple gunfire rounds fired from a vehicle into two mobile homes.
