BATON ROUGE, La. – A Louisiana State Probation and Parole mobile response team of 11 officers this morning seized more than $150,000 in cash, 800 grams of heroin, 500 grams of black tar heroin, 480 grams of crack cocaine, 400 grams of a substance believed to be drugs, two AR-15s, an AK-47, five handguns, a bullet proof vest, a large amount of ammunition, as well as high capacity gun magazines at the home of a New Orleans man currently on state felony probation.

Officers booked 44-year-old Rueben Cain of 4727 Lurline Street, New Orleans, Louisiana, with Possession with Intent to Distribute Cocaine, Possession with Intent to Distribute Heroin, and Felon in Possession of a Firearm. More charges are possible. Cain was on a two-year probation sentence for a June 25, 2018, Orleans Parish conviction for Possession With Intent to Distribute Controlled Dangerous Substance.

This seizure was the result of a Probation and Parole compliance check organized after Cain's Probation Officer noticed bullets during a recent residence check at the man's home. The officer's observation provided reasonable suspicion of crime at the home, and warranted today's compliance check.

Due to the size and scope of today's bust, Probation and Parole alerted the Federal Drug Enforcement Agency and Louisiana State Police.
