A Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office K-9 assisted deputies in three arrests during two separate incidents Tuesday in Vivian and Keithville.
K-9 Snoop and his handler, Deputy Jacob Vaitkus, first assisted Sgt. Justin Sundquist during a traffic stop on Carson Street in Vivian around 11 a.m.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, Snoop alerted deputies to the presence of illegal narcotics, leading to the seizure of suspected methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia.
Two residents were arrested and booked into the Caddo Correctional Center.
June McGray, 43, was charged with possession of Schedule II and Schedule IV drugs and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Don Wilder, 40, was charged with possession of Schedule II drugs.
Later that afternoon, around 3 p.m., Snoop assisted deputies in locating a fugitive who had fled into a wooded area in Keithville.
Using his tracking abilities, Snoop located Brandon Bradberry, 35, who surrendered without incident.
Bradberry was arrested and booked into the Caddo Correctional Center on warrants for simple burglary and theft. His bond was set at $100,000.
The Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office recognized Deputy Vaitkus, K-9 Snoop and the deputies involved in both incidents for their teamwork.
The two incidents resulted in three arrests.
