Self-Defense leads to fatal shooting at Mandeville gas station, police say.
According to Mandeville Police, the shooting happened at the Shell station, at 3959 Highway 22.
Police said two people, both males, were involved and both were customers at the gas station. The initial call to police started as a call to help clear a disturbance and it turned into a response to a shooting.
‘We got a call around 10:15 a.m. this morning, what we call a disperse subject. Apparently, the store was having a problem with a customer,” said Capt. Ron Ruple. “They were asking that law enforcement come and remove the subject.”
According to Mandeville Police, the victim, later identified as Shawn Breland, 42, of Folsom, was inside the store and after buying something he began berating the clerk. The clerk ordered Breland to leave the store, and Breland came back inside several times.
Another man who was inside the store and carried a visible firearm in a holster also tried to de-escalate the situation and warned Breland to leave.
