Theft Fraud—Louisiana
Amount: Unknown
An Alexandria man who reported his 4-wheeler as stolen was arrested on one count of filing a false police report and one count of insurance fraud. He reported the vehicle stolen on July 30, 2014. In October 2015 deputies spotted a 4-wheeler on a public road and checked the VIN number due to the large number of 4-wheeler thefts. It was registered to an insurance company, and it was determined that it was the one the man had reported missing. However, the driver had purchased the vehicle from the insured over a year ago. The insured was arrested and later released on $5,250 bond, and the investigation is continuing.
