Opelousas man arrested, accused of fraudulent bidding at livestock auction
(KLFY) -- An Opelousas man has been arrested and charged with felony theft after allegedly making bogus bids at a livestock auction, authorities said.
Inspectors with the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry Livestock Brand Commission arrested Lester R. Johnson, Jr., 32, of Opelousas on Aug. 22.
LBC investigators said that in November 2023, Johnson was the high bidder on one head of livestock at a local livestock market, and then failed to pay the market for it.
