(WDAM) -KSLA News 12 Shreveport, Louisiana News Weather & Sports Lumberton Police Chief Shane Flynt has been suspended with pay, according to Mayor Quincy Rogers. The mayor said Flynt was sent home Tuesday after WDAM showed Rogers a video showing the police chief smoking what he implies to be marijuana. Rogers said Flynt will remain on suspension until the city’s board of aldermen can meet. Rogers said he tried to call a special meeting to address the issue, but could not get board members to meet.
