PLAQUEMINE - Two people have been arrested after a man was found dead in a bathtub Sunday morning.

According to the Iberville Parish Sheriff's Office,  21-year-old Andrew Blanchard was one of four people attending the party at a home on Bayou Road Friday night. 

Authorities say the other three found Blanchard passed out during the party. They reportedly removed Blanchard's clothing and placed him in a bathtub before returning to the festivities and eventually falling asleep.

The group woke up the next morning to find Blanchard dead in the tub.

According to authorities, 20-year-old Michael Moore Jr. and 19-year-old Georgette Centeio have been arrested and charged with principal to second degree murder, possession of narcotics(including marijuana, cocaine, and heroine), and possession of drug paraphernalia.
