South Bossier Parish residents near Sligo Road could have been exposed to brain-eating amoebas.
Tests by the Louisiana Department and of Health and Hospitals at the Sligo Water System were positive for naegleria fowleri, a type of amoeba that can be fatal if it enters a person's brain.

As a result of this sample, the water system will be performing a 60 day “chlorine burn”, where the residual chlorine will be maintained at somewhat higher levels than normal. The chlorine level required by the Department of Health is safe for consumption.
