Thefts of UTV, Guns, and More Solved by TPSO

Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff Daniel Edwards reports that on Thursday, February 20, 2020, TPSO
detectives arrested 25-year-old Devin Saxon at his residence on Perry Trail Road in Arcola for felony possession of stolen property and three counts of misdemeanor possession of stolen property.

Detectives executed a search warrant on Saxon's residence after a stolen Polaris Ranger UTV was located on Goodbee Cemetery Road in the ditch by Tangipahoa Parish maintenance workers. The UTV was reported stolen on February 10, 2020 by a Roseland resident. The UTV was stolen from under the resident's porch during the night. With help from witnesses, detectives were able to track the stolen UTV to the residence of Devin Saxon.

Saxon was currently a suspect in the UTV theft and several other thefts and burglaries in the area. Detectives recovered stolen property from a burglary that occurred on Russell Town Road on February 8, 2020 and stereo equipment and a car radio.

On Friday February 21, 2020, detectives received further information that two guns stolen at the time of the Polaris Ranger theft were being hidden by 21-year-old Dallas Dugas residing at the same address. Detectives revisited the property and discovered the two stolen guns hidden under Dallas Dugas's bed. Dallas Dugas was arrested for two counts of possession of a stolen firearm and one count of possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number after detectives discovered a third gun hidden with the other two stolen guns.

The investigation remains ongoing with additional charges and arrests likely.
