Pineville neighbors complaints lead to several narcotics arrests
In early January 2023, the Rapides Area Drug Enforcement (RADE) Unit began receiving several community complaints in reference to possible narcotic activity at an address on Lakeshore Drive in Pineville. These complaints indicated the owner of the residence, identified as Raegan Alan Boone, 63 of Pineville, was allowing individuals addicted to illegal narcotics to live in his house. RADE Agents, working with Detectives from the Pineville Police Department, began their investigation which resulted in obtaining a search warrant for 1010 Lakeshore Drive.
Due to information that a wanted fugitive was living in the house, RADE Agents requested the assistance of the Rapides Parish SWAT to execute the search warrant.
On January 31st, 2023, RPSO SWAT executed the search warrant and secured the residence with everyone inside. RADE Agents, Agents from the Louisiana Department of Corrections-Probation and Parole, and Pineville PD Detectives conducted the search. Located inside were Boone, Kandice Lee Trichel, Kentrell Chaney, and Garett Thomas Laeger. Boone was found to be in possession of a small amount of methamphetamine, amphetamine pills and a firearm. Boone is a convicted felon and is not permitted to possess a firearm.
