Shreveport detectives are hoping the public can help them locate two men wanted for unrelated crimes.

Jermelra Pegues, 21, of Shreveport is wanted for unauthorized entry of an inhabited dwelling for an incident that occurred on June 10 in the 2600 block of Silver Pine.

Pegues is accused of entering the residence at 3:15 a.m. without the consent of the resident, who is the mother of his 3-month-old child. Pegues also has other outstanding warrants, including a charge of simple battery and numerous traffic offenses.

Police also are looking for Steven Tackett, 17, of Grand Cane who is wanted for vehicular burglary.

Tackett is accused of taking keys from an automotive shop in the 9000 block of Mansfield Road and later breaking into at least one car there on May 27.

Tackett was arrested for theft by fraud in DeSoto Parish earlier this month for a scam involving the selling of non-existent items on E-Bay.

If anyone knows the whereabout of either of these suspects, please call Detective Shannon Mack at 673-6985 or Crime Stoppers at 673-7000.
