Person of interest identified in connection with Houma stabbings that left 4 dead
Authorities say four people were killed and a juvenile was critically injured as detectives continue searching for information on the stabbings.
On Saturday, the Terrebonne Parish Sheriff's Office identified 47-year-old Kaegan Jude Solet as a person of interest following a series of stabbings in Houma that left four people dead.
Deputies initially responded to the 200 block of Ashland Drive, where they discovered a juvenile suffering from apparent stab wounds; investigators later found four additional victims dead inside a nearby home.
Acadian Ambulance Service Air Med transported the juvenile to an out-of-area hospital, where the victim remains in critical condition as detectives gather evidence to determine what led to the attacks.
Authorities emphasized that being named a person of interest does not constitute a criminal charge; records indicate Solet was previously arrested in 2019 for stabbing a 59-year-old woman.
Anyone with information regarding Solet's whereabouts should contact the Terrebonne Parish Sheriff at 985-876-2500, as the investigation remains active and officials have not disclosed a motive or victim connection.
