The Morgan City Police Department has arrested Michael Anthony Noel, 53, of Birch Street, Morgan City, on multiple felony and misdemeanor sex crime charges following an extensive investigation.

The latest arrest stems from a continuing investigation that began after Noel’s previous arrest on September 30, 2025, by the Morgan City Police Department Narcotics Division for various narcotics violations.
Following that incident, detectives obtained new evidence linking Noel to a series of alleged sexual offenses. As a result, additional warrants were issued leading to his re-arrest on the above charges.
The Morgan City Police Department Detective Division is urging anyone who may have information or believes they could be a victim connected to Noel to contact investigators at 985-380-4605. Authorities emphasize that all cases involving victims will be handled with complete confidentiality.
This remains an active and ongoing investigation. Noel has been booked on the new charges and continues to be held pending judicial proceedings.
