Officer Anthony Hebert Arrested for 7 Counts of False Imprisonment & Other Charges


From the Sulphur Police Department:

According to Chief of Police Chris Abrahams, on Monday, July 13, 2009 at approximately 9:09 PM, officers of the Sulphur Police Department were dispatched to North Stanford Street in reference to a man with a gun.

Upon arriving, officers were advised that a male subject, later identified as Anthony J. Hebert, 31, an off-duty Lake Charles Police Officer, went to the residence to see a subject concerning a child custody dispute.

After a confrontation in the yard with the subject, Hebert allegedly entered the residence with a handgun. Officers were advised that Hebert then pointed the gun at everyone inside the residence and refused to allow anyone to leave the residence or call 911 and struck one of the victims on the side of the head with the handgun. Hebert later left the residence and was notified that the Sulphur Police were at his home looking for him.

Hebert went home where he was arrested for aggravated burglary, seven counts of false imprisonment with a dangerous weapon, aggravated battery and six counts of aggravated assault.

Hebert was booked into the Sulphur City Jail and later released on $140,000 bond per Judge Mike Canaday.

The Sulphur Police Detective Division is still investigating this incident.
