Jackson Man Booked For Allegedly Stealing Four-Wheeler For Joyride

ST. FRANCISVILLE, La. (AP) — A Jackson, La., man is accused of stealing a four-wheel motorcycle from a rural home and using it to joyride in a nearby creek.

The Advocate reports West Feliciana Parish sheriff's deputies arrested Brandon M. Mitchell, 20, on Thursday.

Sheriff J. Austin Daniel said Mitchell was booked at the parish jail on counts of littering, possession of marijuana, felony theft, trespassing and simple criminal damage to property.

The sheriff said deputies saw a group of people camping on private property bordering Bayou Sara and found the missing four-wheeler.

Deputies issued citations to four other people in the group for littering and simple trespassing. One of the four also was cited for possession of marijuana, Daniel said.
