Rayville Police Chief Willie Robinson would like to advise all citizens of Rayville that taking something that does not belong to you is a crime.
“Whether it’s in a store, in a house or in a vehicle -- if it doesn’t belong to you, don’t touch it,” the chief said.
Chief Robinson advised that local businesses have security cameras to assist in deterring theft and in identifying suspects when theft occurs. Chief Robinson advised that when you are charged with theft, you will incur fines and will be held responsible for paying restitution to the victim of the theft.
The chief also advises to think before you act.
“If you steal, you will be caught,” he said. “Our officers are working hard to keep this town safe. They are doing a great job and will continue to do so.”
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.
