The NOPD has arrested Devin Adams (DOB: 01-11-2001) for illegal possession of a firearm and illegal drugs in an incident that occurred in the 400 block of Bourbon Street on January 13, 2019.

At about 1:30 a.m., members of the NOPD Eighth District’s Bourbon Promenade Unit were conducting foot patrol in the 400 block of Bourbon Street when they discovered a male subject in illegal possession of a handgun loaded with live rounds of ammunition. Further search of the subject, later identified as Adams, revealed Adams to also be in possession of marijuana.

Adams was arrested and booked into the Orleans Parish Justice Center for illegal carrying of a weapon and possession of marijuana. A booking photo of Adams was not avaliable
