NOPD Seeking Persons of Interest in Investigation of Eighth District Homicide

The NOPD is seeking to locate and question three subjects identified as persons of interest in the ongoing investigation of a homicide which occurred earlier today (December 29, 2018) at the intersection of St. Ann and Dauphine Street.

At about 4:10 a.m., NOPD Eighth District officers and Louisiana State Police responded to a call of an aggravated battery by cutting at the location. Upon arrival, they located an adult while male lying on the sidewalk suffering from multiple stab wounds. New Orleans EMS responded and transported the victim to an area hospital, where he was pronounced dead. At that time, NOPD Homicide Unit detectives assumed command of the investigation.

The subjects pictured above and seen on surveillance video are considered persons of interest in this investigation. These subjects are not wanted at this time. However, detectives wish to question them regarding this incident.

Surveillance video of the persons of interest can be viewed at this link.

No further details are available at this time regarding this investigation.

Anyone with information regarding this incident or the depicted persons of interest are asked to contact NOPD Homicide Detective Brett Mathes at 504-658-5300, or call anonymously to Crimestoppers at 504-822-1111 or toll-free at 1-877-903-STOP.
