The Holmes County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO) has made an arrest in the investigation of missing FedEx packages.
HCSO contacted FedEx to assist in identifying the driver assigned to deliver the missing packages. FedEx identified Latavion Lewis, a contracted worker from Alabama, as the individual responsible for delivery.
Deputies made contact with Lewis, who agreed to meet with deputies at the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office.
During the interview, Lewis admitted to deputies that, due to the late hour, he chose to discard the undelivered packages at several locations rather than return them to the FedEx warehouse.
As a result of the investigation, 44 packages have been recovered so far. The recovered packages went to the Bonifay Post Office, which ensured they were delivered to their rightful owners.
Lewis was taken into custody and charged with Organized Scheme to Defraud, Grand Theft, and Illegal Dumping.
Sheriff Tate commends the quick work of HCSO deputies in identifying and apprehending the suspect and thanks to the Bonifay Post Office for their role in locating and delivering the recovered packages.
