The NOPD is searching for a black 2014 Ford F150 Lariat truck that was taken during an armed carjacking.
The incident happened on April 22, 2018. At about 11:20 p.m., the victim was driving on Flanders Street and eventually stopped where the street intersected on Socrates Street. As the victim was sitting in his vehicle, two armed subjects opened the rear doors of the vehicle and forced the victim to drive to a nearby location. Once at the location, the subjects forced the victim out of the vehicle. They then fled the location with the vehicle in an unknown direction.
The vehicle bears Louisiana license plate #C70236 and it is described as having a white “Darth Vader” sticker on the rear window of the vehicle.
