Houma Man Arrested for making Planned Arson Threats

Houma, LA – On January 10, 2017, 54 year old Daniel Neville of Houma was arrested on State Police warrants for making threats to blow up a Social Security Building in Houma.

On November 3, 2016, Neville went to a Social Security Administration (SSA) Building in Houma, LA. During his visit, Neville got into an argument with SSA personnel and threatened to blow the building up when they told him to leave. The allegations were brought to the ATF and the Federal Protective Service (FPS) who in turn requested the assistance of Louisiana State Police Criminal Investigations Division. During the course of the investigation, Troopers were able to substantiate the threats made by Neville and obtained arrest warrants charging him with Disturbing the Peace, Communicating False Information of a Planned Arson and Entry, and Remaining Where Forbidden. All efforts to locate and arrest Neville were unsuccessful.

On January 10, 2017, Neville went to the Leonard Chabert Memorial Hospital in Houma and created a disturbance. Officers from the Houma Police Department responded and arrested Neville for the disturbance. Officers then learned about the outstanding warrants and also arrested him on the State Police charges. The Houma Police Department contacted Troopers with CID and made them aware of the arrest.

Law enforcement agencies across Louisiana will take any threats against public facilities seriously, and will investigate such threats thoroughly. Louisiana State Police remain dedicated to the mission of keeping the residents of our state safe, and will continue to do so by maintaining strong working relationships with federal and local law enforcement and first responder entities.
