A man has been arrested following two shootings over the weekend.
St. Landry Parish Sheriff Bobby Guidroz said Robert Tanner was arrested overnight after being wanted for the two shootings.
According to Guidroz, Tanner shot and injured a man who came to repossess his vehicle on Sunday night and opened fire into a church on Sunday also.
The Sheriff noted the anonymous man Tanner shot for repossessing his vehicle is in stable condition.
However, Guidroz said Tanner has a history of breaking the law.
"He shot into a church occupied by a number of people," Guidroz said. "We are going to be looking for him very soon...We're putting this case together and he's got some serious, serious charges coming."
Guidroz said Tanner is part of a group of sovereign citizens who go against authorities.
"He [Robert Tanner] belongs to a group of people that are anti-government and they feel that there is no such thing as law enforcement," Guidroz said. "They feel that they don't have to pay taxes, that law enforcement can't enforce the law because of his sovereignty.
Sheriff Guidroz said Tanner was arrested on two counts of attempted second-degree murder and three counts of criminal damage to property.
