As a result of those interviews, deputies requested and were granted permission to search the vehicle, resulting in drug paraphernalia being seized.
Deputies and communications officers were able to correctly identify all three suspects and determined they were all fugitives from various jurisdictions.
Papineau and Crystal LeBlanc were incarcerated pending bond proceedings.
Darrin LeBlanc will be returned to Mississippi following extradition proceedings.
