Our preliminary investigation into the escapes has revealed the offenders defeated the locking mechanism to open the back (fire escape) door to a Dorm at DC-3. The offenders were then given a ride to various locations in the Bunkie area. Three (3) of the offenders were captured in the Bunkie area by APSO Deputies and Detectives. The other two (2) offenders captured were found as a result of the APSO investigation and the assistance of the RLCC Chase Team. The investigation and search are ongoing.
Sheriff David L. Dauzat would like your help in apprehending these escapees and asks that anyone with information about their whereabouts please contact the Avoyelles Parish 911 Communication Center, or the Avoyelles Parish Sheriff’s Office at 318-253-4000.
