A Bossier Parish man is in a Webster Parish prison after stealing items from a residence on Miller Briarwood Rd. in Sibley.

Jeffery Kyle Moore, 33, of the 600 block of Haughton Trace Ct., Haughton, La., was arrested by WPSO’s CID Det. T.D. Kemp Jr. for simple burglary and theft of a firearm. He is at Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center with bonds totaling $50,000.

Sheriff Jason Parker said the thefts occurred in January, 2023 when Moore entered the south Webster residence without authorization and took a Beretta shotgun and a trombone in a case.

“The shotgun was located at a local pawn shop under Moore’s name,” Parker said. “The trombone was found at a pawn shop on Benton Road in Bossier City. It was placed on hold and seized by Bossier City Police Department Det. Chris Tuttle pending charges in that jurisdiction.”

Parker said when interviewed Moore denied stealing either item.

“Moore stated he is prescribed several prescription medications taken daily,” Parker added.
