Ponchatoula police chief weighing disciplinary options for officers who went on strike

PONCHATOULA - The Ponchatoula police chief is consulting the city's legal team about disciplinary options for officers who went on strike Friday. "The city's attorney has to find out if I can do anything. I've never had this happen before, he's a new issue. I don't know if legally we can take disciplinary action against employees that have called in sick," Chief Bry Layrisson said. Chief Layrisson spoke with WBRZ Friday and said officers planned a sick-out due to low wages.&am
