Nathan Dean and Megean Allen are accused of removing a catalytic converter from a Toyota Sequoia parked in a parking lot in Port Allen, Louisiana, and then returning two days later to remove a second catalytic converter from the same Toyota Sequoia. Detectives reportedly got a vehicle description and information that Nathan Dean and Megean Allen were captured on video stealing five gas cans from a property on Kahn’s Road in Port Allen, Louisiana, during the course of the investigation.
Investigators were able to apprehend Nathan Dean and Megean Allen with the assistance of the West Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Division.
