Orleans Man Arrested for Threatening a Public Official


Troop B – On June 23, 2011, Louisiana State Police Bureau of Investigations Troopers arrested Rolland White (W/M, age 44) of New Orleans, LA, on charges of Harassing / Threatening Phone Calls and Threatening a Public Official. The arrest was made after an investigation that was initiated in April 2011, when troopers received a complaint in reference to a threatening phone call made to the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF). White spoke with an agent regarding a boat registration and became irate. He then threatened to kill the agent, as well as the next LDWF agent that he saw. Troopers were able to identify the caller as White and obtained an arrest warrant. White was booked into the Orleans Parish Central Lock-Up.
