Earlier last week, Brad Higginbotham, a previously wanted fugitive, turned himself in to the Avoyelles Parish Sheriff’s Office and was booked into Detention Center #1 (APSO DC-1).

Sheriff David L. Dauzat would like to thank the community and all partnering law enforcement agencies for their continued support in locating Higginbotham. Their involvement played a vital role in ensuring he was held accountable for his actions.

“This is a prime example of what we can accomplish when the public and law enforcement work hand in hand,” said Sheriff Dauzat. “Together, we can make our communities in Avoyelles Parish a safer place for all our families.”

APSO remains committed to the safety of its communities and appreciate all tips and leads provided by the public.

If anyone has information about other wanted individuals, contact APSO at 318-253-4000 or email info@AvoyellesSO.org. Tips may remain anonymous.
