Blanchard man arrested for illegal behavior with juveniles

A Blanchard man was arrested Wednesday for sex crimes involving juveniles over 10 years ago, said Caddo Sheriff Steve Prator.

Jimmy Garland Canada, 63, of the 200 block of Juliet Street, turned himself in on a warrant obtained by Sheriff’s Det. Jared Marshall. Canada was booked into the Caddo Correctional Center on two counts of molestation of a juvenile.

The case was recently re-investigated, and a witness to that incident came forward
