HAMMOND — The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff's Office is searching for several suspects wanted for a variety of crimes across the parish. 

According to deputies, detectives believe a Black woman captured on surveillance footage may have information connected to a narcotics-related investigation that began at the end of August. 

The next case, deputies said, involves a suspect accused of burglarizing the same East Pleasant Ridge Road business three times in the past six months in March, June and August. Each time, the suspect cut a hole through a back fence and stole several spools of cable wire that are several thousand dollars in value. The suspect was also seen on surveillance video and appears to be around 6 feet tall with a medium build and traveling in a 4-door sedan.

A third incident, which happened on Sept. 17, involves a Black man seen hiding alcohol bottles in his clothes while at the convenience store located in the 11000 block of La. 16 in Amite. When confronted by the store's clerk, the man physically fought the employee and ran from the store with the stolen items. The suspect then left the parking lot in a gold Chevrolet SUV, likely a Traverse, traveling westbound away from the interstate.

Sheriff Gerald Sticker encourages anyone with information about who any of these suspects are, and/or where to find them, to contact our Criminal Investigations Division at 985-902-2088.

WBRZ has asked deputies for more information, but was told they could not share any more information.
