The Evangeline Parish Sheriff’s Office has arrested two individuals for theft of a four wheeler following a pursuit on Friday.
According to Major Jeremy Mitchell, with the EPSO, on June 8, 2018, his department “received word that two white male subjects were in possession of a stolen four wheeler.”
Major Mitchell went on to state that “in a joint effort with St. Landry Sheriff’s Office and Louisiana State Police, we were able to get in a pursuit with the subjects, who were traveling on the four wheeler. Ultimately the pursuit ended when the subjects came to rest in a ditch on LD Verrette Road (Mamou area).”
This matter is currently still under investigation, and for that reason the identity of the two individuals taken into custody are not being released at this time.
