LAROSE, La. (BRPROUD) — For the second time this month, the Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office arrested 46-year-old Reggie Estay, of Larose.

Estay was arrested on November 9 along with three others after “agents found over 50 grams of suspected methamphetamine hidden in a loaf of packaged bread,” according to the Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office.

The suspected drug dealer was arrested again on Monday, November 22.

62-year-old Reese Gravois, of Cut Off was arrested along with Estay during a traffic stop.

The traffic stop took place at approximately 3 p.m. and agents identified Gravois as the driver.
