Armed Robbery Suspects Sought in Eighth District Incident

The NOPD is seeking to locate and identify four suspects in the investigation of an armed robbery that occurred on January 18, 2020.

At approximately 3:50 a.m., the victims were sitting on a bench at the intersection of Conti Street and the Mississippi River in the area of Woldenberg Park when the pictured suspects – three unknown black males and one unknown black female reportedly surrounded the couple and attacked them. The victim attempted to fight back, but one of the males allegedly displayed a firearm and forced the victims to lie on the ground. Suspects took the victims’ items and fled the area via the St. Louis Street exit, then unknown.

The group was tracked via surveillance video from the riverfront area to the 100 block of Carondelet Street, where these images were captured.

Anyone with information on this incident is asked to contact NOPD Eighth District detectives at 504-658-6080, or call anonymously to Crimestoppers at 504-822-1111 or toll-free 1-877-903-STOP.
