Bossier City Couple Arrested for Juvenile Cruelty

A Bossier City couple has been arrested for allegedly leaving their two minor children by themselves for several hours overnight in a house with no electricity, no food, and no running water.  

Bossier police say they were tipped off by a concerned citizen that the 13-year-old boy and 11-year-old girl were being left alone in a house in the 4800 block of General Scott Place.

33-year-old Ronnie Jagers and his 34-year-old wife Sandra have been charged with cruelty to juveniles.  They were booked into the Bossier City Jail and then later transferred to Bossier Max.  The children have been placed in the custody of Child Protective Services.
