Felon Arrested in Louisiana for Alleged Narcotics and Firearms Possession After Police are Alerted to Suspicious Vehicle
Jeff Davis Parish, Louisiana – A felon has been arrested in Louisiana for alleged narcotics and firearms possession after police are alerted to a suspicious vehicle.
The Jeff Davis Parish Sheriff’s Office stated on March 6, 2023, that on Saturday, March 4, Deputies were summoned to an address in Iowa, Louisiana, in relation to a suspicious car parked in someone’s driveway.
Jesse Lee Davis, 47, of Lake Charles, Louisiana, was interviewed by deputies. Davis, according to authorities, acted nervously and stated that the vehicle was not his, that it belonged to a friend, and that he had borrowed it.
Dispatch informed deputies that Davis had a history of narcotics charges and was a felon. Deputies reportedly noticed a strong odor coming from the vehicle and asked Davis if there were drugs in the vehicle. According to reports, Davis replied, that he was not aware of any drugs, that there should not be, and that if there is, it is not his vehicle and hence does not belong to him.
A K-9 unit responded and alerted to the vehicle. A search turned up a blue plastic eyeglass case with a clear plastic bag holding a green leafy substance suspected of being marijuana, a small plastic bag with a white crystal-like substance suspected of being Methamphetamine, and rolling cigarette papers. A flare gun with a spent 12-gauge shotshell in the chamber and a black Sig Sauer P365 were also discovered.
Davis was arrested for two counts of violating the Louisiana Revised Statute: possession of a firearm by a felon, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of marijuana less than 14 grams, possession of Schedule II, possession of a firearm with a controlled dangerous substance, and possession of Schedule IV.
An arrest is an indication that probable cause exists to believe the subject was involved in the offense alleged. A person is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
