Houma, Louisiana – Six people were arrested after authorities seized more than 70 pounds of methamphetamine in coordinated searches across Terrebonne Parish, prompting a major narcotics investigation.
According to the Terrebonne Parish Sheriff’s Office, the arrests followed a months-long probe by its Narcotics Division, assisted by Louisiana State Police and other agencies. Investigators executed multiple search warrants early Thursday, Feb. 12, 2026, at homes in Houma, Gray, Schriever and Gibson.
Authorities said the coordinated operation resulted in the seizure of approximately 70 pounds of methamphetamine, nearly one pound of heroin and fentanyl, almost one ounce of cocaine, three ounces of marijuana, drug paraphernalia and close to $188,000 in cash.
Sheriff Tim Soignet said the investigation targeted individuals allegedly involved in distributing large quantities of narcotics throughout the parish. He credited partnerships with Louisiana State Police, Homeland Security Investigations and the Houma Police Department.
Among those arrested were Ryan “Hap” Antoine, 37; Torylina Johnson, 28; Shyannia Johnson; Rachel Lenette Antoine; Raheem Robertson; and Stephen Lagrone, 30. Each faces multiple felony drug charges, including possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, heroin, fentanyl or cocaine. Bond amounts ranged from $500,000 to $585,000, according to jail records.
All suspects are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
Authorities said additional arrests could follow as the investigation remains ongoing.
The operation may be especially relevant to young residents and workers in Terrebonne Parish, where officials say narcotics trafficking continues to impact community safety.
