NOPD Makes Arrest in Eighth District Armed Robbery

On December 13, 2022 the NOPD arrested Al Davis (black male, DOB: 04-04-1987) in connection with an armed robbery that occurred in the 500 block of South Peters Street.

On December 1, 2022 a garbage collection worker reported that he had been robbed while picking up garbage at the location.

The victim reported that an unknown suspect allegedly robbed him at gunpoint after he asked the subject not to park too close to the garbage truck while collection was underway.

Detectives were able to identify Davis as the alleged perpetrator of this incident with the help of Crimestoppers.  After questioning, Davis was apprehended at the Eighth District station.

Anyone with additional information about this incident is asked to contact Eighth District detectives at (504) 658-6080 or Crimestoppers anonymously at (504) 822-1111 or toll-free at 1-877-903-7867.
