St. Charles Parish deputies are investigating an unusual incident at Norco Elementary School on Wednesday afternoon.
Investigators say an Uber driver dropped off a woman at the school around 5 p.m. He then reportedly buried an object at the foot of a tree that turned out to be a Buddhist prayer pendant.
The driver also placed religious stickers on power poles near the school.
Detectives say the man is a Chinese national, and the FBI confirms he has a green card and no criminal history.
The sheriff's office says no laws were broken.
