New Orleans Police are asking the public's assistance with identifying a suspect wanted for hit and run driving.
According to investigators, at about 1;00 p.m. on July 17, 2024 the pictured suspect was operating a black Cadillac Escalade, apparently a taxicab type vehicle, when he collided with a pedestrian at the intersection of Canal Street and South Claiborne Avenue.
The pictured suspect left the scene without identifying himself to the victim. The suspect was later caught on video in the 1500 block of Canal Street.
The suspect was described as being "an Hispanic adult male, clean cut", with braces on his teeth."
Anyone with information about the suspect is asked to call the Hit and Run Section at 504-658-6210 or to anonymously call Crimestoppers at 504-822-1111.
