Suspect Wanted in Theft on North Dorgenois Street

The NOPD is seeking to locate and identify an individual caught on surveillance during a theft that occurred on January 29, 2017 in the 1400 block of North Dorgenois Street.

At about 11:30 p.m., surveillance cameras at E-1 Electric Company captured evidence of the pictured individual scaling the business’ iron fence to gain access to the yard. The subject is then seen taking several rolls of electrical wire and tossing them over the fence before leaving the area with the wire.

The subject is described as a black male seen wearing a dark colored hooded sweatshirt, dark colored pants, a dark beanie cap and what appear to be white gloves.

Anyone with information regarding this incident or the pictured individual is asked to contact Fifth District detectives at 504-658-6050.

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.
