NOPD Arrests Suspects on Drug, Gun Possession Charges

The NOPD has arrested Glenn Jourdan (DOB: 08-22-1990) and Kordell Moore (DOB: 12-07-1993) on drug and gun possession charges on December 17, 2017 at the intersection of Thalia and South Saratoga streets.

At about 7:08 p.m., Sixth District officers conducted a suspicious persons stop on two individuals at the intersection. Upon making contact with the subjects, later identified as Jourdan and Moore, officers discovered each subject was concealing a loaded handgun in his respective waistband.  A search of Moore further revealed him to be in possession of crack cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, marijuana and cash.

In addition to the charges stemming from this incident, Jourdan was found to be on parole for an earlier attempted second degree murder conviction, as well as Jourdan having a prior drug possession distribution.

Jourdan was arrested and booked into the Orleans Parish Justice Center for illegal carrying of a weapon and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Moore was arrested and booked into the Orleans Parish Justice Center for illegal carrying of a weapon, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, illegal carrying of a weapon while in possession of narcotics, possession of the aforementioned illegal narcotics and resisting an officer.
