AMITE (February 3, 2026)- The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office (TPSO) is asking for the public’s assistance in locating a suspected drug dealer following a joint operation this week that uncovered numerous deadly narcotics as well as weapons.Ledeven “Phat” Edwards, 35, is currently wanted on three counts of Possession with Intent to Distribute Schedule II narcotics and one count each of Possession of Schedule I narcotics, Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, Possession of Weapons While in Possession of Controlled Dangerous Substances (CDS), Convicted Felon in Possession of a Firearm, Creation/Operation of a Clandestine Lab, and Resisting an Officer.Following months of investigating, TPSO Narcotics detectives, assisted by the Hammond Police Department and the DEA’s Fentanyl Overdose Response Team (F.O.R.T.), conducted a search warrant at a home on James Road in Amite where Edwards was confirmed to have been selling Fentanyl, Meth, Marijuana, and various prescription pills. That search turned up fentanyl, marijuana and evidence of drug production and distribution. In addition, detectives found a semi-automatic gun with a 90-round drum magazine as well as a 30-round magazine for a different weapon not on site at the time of this operation. Edwards is a convicted felon and is considered armed and dangerous. If you know where Edwards is, please contact our Criminal Investigations Office at 985-902-2088.
