NOPD Identifies Suspect in Cyberstalking, Simple Assault on Ray Avenue

The NOPD has obtained an arrest warrant for Nicholas Christopher Rosa (DOB: 02-29-1984) in connection with a cyberstalking and simple assault that occurred on December 18, 2016 in the 4700 block of Ray Avenue.

At about 4 p.m., Rosa allegedly contacted the victim on her cell phone via text message from an unknown phone number and threatened to kill the victim if she refused to have sex with him. Rosa then reportedly informed the victim that he knew where she worked because he had been following her.

A photo of Rosa is included with this release.

Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Nicholas Christopher Rosa is asked to contact Seventh District detectives at 504-658-6070. Citizens with information that can help solve crimes are asked to call Crimestoppers at 504-822-1111 or toll-free at 1-877-903-STOP.
