PORT ALLEN - A year-long, cross-jurisdictional investigation, called "Operation Hellcat" resulted in six arrests and the recovery of over a million dollars worth of potentially stolen assets.

"I cannot speak enough of the tenacity of these detectives," said WBRSO Chief of Staff Kevin Devall. "They did a phenomenal job and we're very proud of them."

The West Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office discovered the sophisticated heist by working with 10 other law enforcement agencies statewide.

"When one crime occurs in one jurisdiction, we may not know about it in another jurisdiction but these detectives picked up the phone and reached out and called each other and by reaching out and going above and beyond they was able to bring this ring of car thieves to justice," Devall said.

The process involved suspects breaking into the United Pacific auto facility in Port Allen where cars are kept before being transported to dealerships.

"They were trying to pry open, crash through, they had used one of the new vehicles that was in the lot they had access to. It was a truck. They tried to crash through the gate. They were unsuccessful. Any means they would try to gain access into this facility, they would do," said WBRSO spokesperson Landon Groger. 

Once they gained access, they would take the key fobs -- which were left inside the cars--and replace them with GPS devices.

After the cars arrived at their respective dealerships -- located across southeast Louisiana, the suspects would simply drive them off the lot.

The type of cars targeted included Dodge Hellcats -- valued at 100k each.

In the end, the efforts of Operation Hellcat resulted in six  arrests and the recovery of 19 key fobs.

The dealership locations were across six locations in southeast Louisiana, including Baton Rouge, Denham Springs, Slidell, Metairie, Lafayette and Harvey.
