0300MT Monday morning. Officers spotted the Jeep Cherokee used in some of the UBEVs (Unlawful breaking and Entering a vehicle) and found it to be stolen. Officers conducted surveillance and observed a Lexus parked next to the Jeep and watched the driver enter a motel room.
Officers then found the Lexus to be stolen as well. Officers contacted the on call BPD Auto Theft detective and knocked on the motel room door. A W/F answered the door and allowed officers in. Officers encountered Moore and arrested him due to the six outstanding felony warrants for his arrest for ( UPOCS, FTA Obstructing Justice, FTA RSP, FTA UBEV, FTA Burglary 2nd, FTA Robbery 2nd, and SORNA – Sex Offender Registration Notification Act). Numerous pieces of property were found in the room all of which is believed to be stolen. A Crime Scene Technician arrived on scene and photographed the room. The vehicles were both stolen in South Precinct in November and December. At this time Moore is also charged with two counts of (Receiving Stolen Property) RSP 1st .
The female, identified as Kersta Lesieur W/F, 24, is charged with Unlawful Possession of a Controlled Substance (UPOCS) for drugs found in the motel room which she rented. We believe these two suspects are responsible for a rash UBEVs on the Southside of Birmingham and their arrest should solve several unsolved cases.
