The van is used to
transport juveniles under court supervision to pick up litter throughout
Bogalusa as part of the youths’ punishment. City Prosecutor David Merlin Duke
financed the installation of lettering across the vehicle’s sides and most
recently a caution light bar atop it to alert motorists.
The surplus van was
donated a couple of years ago by the Florida Parishes Juvenile Detention Center
which is supervised in Bogalusa by Mike Breland. The program’s previous van was
at least 30 years old.
