A man who was paid to do some work at a Pineville home failed to do so for two months before a complaint was filed, according to a release.
The Rapides Parish Sheriff’s Office received the complaint on Dec. 1. The victim claimed that Billy Ray Miller, 78, was paid to do some contract work at their home in October, but two months had passed and the work wasn’t done, it reads.
Detectives investigated and got a warrant for Miller’s arrest. He was taken into custody on Dec. 28 and booked into the Rapides Parish Detention Center on a charge of home improvement fraud.
Miller, of the 1600 block of West Texas Avenue, was released later that day after posting a $10,000 bond.
Miller faced the same charge in 2016, but it was dropped, according to Rapides Parish Clerk of Court records.
