The NOPD is requesting assistance in locating and identifying a suspect sought in the investigation of a package theft that occurred on December 4, 2019.

At about 1:36 p.m., the above pictured vehicle parked within the 4200 block of South Saratoga Street, near the intersection with Milan Street. The above pictured subject then exited the passenger side of the vehicle and proceeded to steal two packages from the porch of a residence in the 2100 block of Milan St., which was not reported. The subject then walked to a house in the 2000 block Milan St and stole five packages from the porch, which had a combined value of $350.00.

The suspect is identified as a black male with a thin build and brown complexion, standing between 5'10"-6’0” wearing a grey knit cap, black collared shirt, black pants and tan boots. The suspect was observed exiting the passenger side of a black late-model SUV, possibly a Jeep Cherokee, with an unknown paper license plate that could possibly be a dealer advertisement placard or a Texas temporary license plate. 

Anyone with information on this incident is asked to contact NOPD Sixth District detectives at 504-658-6060, or to call anonymously to Crimestoppers GNO at 504-822-1111 or toll-free at 1-877-903-STOP.
