ALEXANDRIA, La. (LBM) — Daryl Stagg, a prominent Louisiana Baptist leader in Central Louisiana has been arrested.
A staff member with the Grant Parish Detention Center in Colfax confirmed by phone with the Baptist Message that Stagg is being detained, June 8, but declined to share about the complaint.
Stagg has been the associational mission strategist for the Big Creek and CenLa Baptist Associations since October 2018.
The Louisiana Baptist Convention released a statement that acknowledged Stagg’s arrest, noting that officials were alerted on June 8. But they added that neither the “Convention nor its Executive Board have any knowledge” about what charges will be filed. Consequently, they offered “no comment” on the matter. However they indicated officials are praying for “all those involved.”
