Unlicensed Contractor Wanted in $5,750 Renovation Scam

The Shreveport-Caddo Financial Crimes Task Force is searching for Lamondre Alex, who is wanted on one count of felony theft.

Doing business as Hi-End Finishers, Alex allegedly entered into a written agreement for home renovations, collecting $5,000 for labor and $750 for discounted materials. Investigators report that Alex delivered only ~$420 worth of materials, never began the work, and failed to show up after promising a July 20 start date. Detectives gathered contracts, Cash App records, text messages, and store receipts before confirming Alex is not a licensed contractor in Louisiana. An arrest warrant for felony theft has been issued.
