COVINGTON - A man who pulled a BB gun on a woman in the parking lot of a sporting goods store and stole her truck over the weekend has been arrested.

St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office said they arrested 33-year-old Andrew Barbazon in Natalbany on Wednesday.

Saturday, a woman called police after a man pointed a rifle at her while loading her car in the parking lot of Academy Sports.

She told deputies the man jumped in the driver's seat and took off for I-12.

Deputies watched security footage and saw the man take a BB gun out of its packaging in the store then walk outside into the parking lot. Two hours later, deputies found the truck in Tangipahoa Parish.

Barbazon was charged with first-degree robbery
