RPD makes final arrest in house burglary case

The Rayville Police Department has arrested the final suspect in a house burglary which occurred on New Year’s Eve.
Rayville Police Chief Willie Robinson said his office received a call reporting the burglary on Jan. 1 and discovered the suspects made their entrance through the front door and took several electronic devices.
Investigators gathered information which led them to believe three suspects were involved in the burglary and made two arrests on Feb. 1. They also arrested a third person for illegal possession of stolen things and warrants for the third burglary suspect were issues.
Investigator Jerry Davis was able to locate and arrest D’Andre McGarr, 18, of 207 Church St., Rayville. He was charged with simple burglary and transported to the Richland Parish Detention Center.
Chief Robinson would like to commend his officers for their hard work and dedication in solving this crime.
“Investigator Jerry Davis and I worked tirelessly on behalf of the victim and as a result we were able to recover and return some of the property in a timely manner,” Robinson said. “This is the kind of happy ending we want for all our cases.”
