RICHWOOD, La. (AP) - Richwood police have arrested a man for allegedly having a cellphone in jail.

26-year-old Mario Roberson, of Shreveport, was booked into Ouachita Correctional Center on a charge of introduction of contraband into a penal institution.

In an arrest affidavit, police were told while an officer was making rounds at Richwood Correctional Center, they found a phone in a cell.

Officers determined the bunk where the cell was found belonged to Roberson.
