Through investigation, the suspect was identified as Randy Holmes (pictured black male, DOB: 11-20-1974).

He is being sought for aggravated second-degree battery, and simple criminal damage to property.

Anyone with information as to the whereabouts of Holmes is asked to contact Fourth District detectives at (504) 658-6040 or Crimestoppers anonymously at (504) 822-1111 or toll-free at 1-877-903-7867.
