The Lamar County Sheriff’s Office, together with multiple law enforcement agencies, recently recovered five stolen vehicles and firearms and arrested three suspects after several reports of vehicle burglaries involving a suspicious white Ford pickup.
On Sept. 30, 2025, the LCSO, along with officers from the Reno Police Department, Northeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force Detectives, Lamar County Drone Team, and the Paris Police Department, responded to Reno following reports from residents.
Officers quickly located the vehicle in question occupied by three suspects, who fled on foot.
A brief foot pursuit ensued, leading to the Paris Police Department detaining one suspect, Davion Hill, who the LCSO later arrested for Evading Detention.
During the investigation, deputies recovered three firearms, two of which were confirmed to have been reported stolen in the area. The white Ford pickup truck was also found to have been stolen from Lamar County.
As the investigation progressed, detectives obtained a search warrant for an address in Paris, where two additional stolen firearms were recovered.
Police arrested Hill, along with Tyrone Reed and Isiah Black, for two counts of Engaging in Organized Criminal Activity.
Reed and Black remain in the Lamar County Jail with bonds totaling $20,000 each. Hill posted bond on his charges.
As a result of the investigation, within one week of the initial incident, all five reported stolen vehicles from Paris and Lamar County have been recovered. Additionally, five firearms were seized, four of which were confirmed stolen.
“The quick recovery of these stolen vehicles and firearms is a direct result of the professionalism and dedication of every agency involved. I want to thank my Deputies, the Northeast Texas Auto Theft Detectives, the Paris Police Department, the Reno Police Department, the Texas Department of Public Safety, and the Lamar County Precinct 2 Constable for their assistance. Thanks to the cooperation of all involved agencies, three individuals were arrested and removed from our streets, helping to make our city and county safer,” said Sheriff Scott Cass.
