Rayville Police Chief Willie Robinson advised all citizens that knowledge of a crime that has been committed could result in criminal charges in some situations.
“If you benefit from that crime, you could be considered an accessory to the crime,” the chief said, “or if someone has told you about a crime they’ve committed, you could be considered an accessory.”
Chief Robinson advised that anyone who has knowledge about the commission of a crime should contact his office to avoid possible arrest and criminal charges.
Chief Robinson also advised motorists of the importance of keeping their vehicle documentation up-to-date.
“You are required by law to have a current motor vehicle inspection sticker, vehicle registration and proof of insurance in your vehicle any time that vehicle is in operation,” the chief said.
Chief Robinson also advised that anyone driving the vehicle should also carry a valid driver’s license.
Chief Robinson encourages all citizens to come by the Rayville Police Department at 900 Harrison St. or to call 728-4431 if you need his help in any way.
