Suspect Identified in Shooting on Country Club Drive
The NOPD has identified Adelaide Sollberger (DOB: 01-26-2001) as a suspect in an aggravated battery by shooting incident that occurred in the 300 block of Country Club Drive on July 29, 2018.
 
The victim told police that at about 1 a.m., he received a call from a female acquaintance known as “Addie”, asking if he would like to meet. The victim said he agreed and asked if “Addie” would pick him up at his residence. When the subject arrived to the residence, the victim said, an unknown white male was sitting in the front passenger seat of the vehicle. The unknown male then allegedly produced an assault rifle and pointed it at the victim and fired, with the gunshot reportedly striking the victim in the arm. The victim said that he then fled the location and called police from a nearby residence. The victim was transported to an area hospital for treatment.
 
As the investigation progressed, detectives were able to determine that Sollberger was the alleged driver of the vehicle in this incident.
 
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Adelaide Sollberger or the unknown male suspect in this incident is asked to contact NOPD Third District detectives at 504-658-6030 or call anonymously to Crimestoppers at 504-822-1111 or toll-free at 1-877-903-STOP.
