Burglary Suspect Caught on Video

The NOPD is looking for a suspect wanted in connection with a burglary in the 800 block of Frenchmen Street.

 

On July 28, 2017, at approximately 6:09 a.m. a shirtless white male was observed scaling the backyard fence of a residence. The suspect was captured on video as he placed several tools on top of the fence and began to climb back over the wall to the street. A neighbor startled the suspect and he fled the area on an orange bicycle.

 

It was later discovered that an outdoor shed in the backyard had a damaged door latch and there were items missing from the storage unit.

 

The suspect is described as a tan white male with dark curly hair, approximately 30 years old and he was carrying a green backpack.

 

If you have information about this incident or the identity of the perpetrator please contact Detective Marshall Scallan or any Eighth District detective at 504-658-6080.
