Rayville Police Chief Willie Robinson would like to caution people about buying goods from private sources.
“Unless you are absolutely certain that the items you are buying really belong to the person you are buying them from, think twice before making the purchase,” he said. “As they say, lack of knowledge is no excuse. If you buy stolen goods, you can be arrested and charged for that, even if you didn’t know the goods were stolen.”
Chief Robinson advised that all citizens need to be aware if they have knowledge of a crime and do not report it, they can be arrested and charged with accessory after the fact.
“It’s very important that you inform law enforcement officers if you have any information about any crimes that have been committed,” the chief said. “Not only does this help you avoid criminal charges yourself, it helps protect the whole community. This is just good citizenship.”
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.
