The NOPD is asking for the public's help in identifying three suspects wanted in connection with an aggravated assault that occurred at a business in the Third District.
On Tuesday January 24, 2023, at about 12:56 p.m. the above pictured unknown black males entered a business in the 3100 block of Gentilly Boulevard. The suspects were wearing masks, and when the store manager asked them to remove their masks, they allegedly refused. According to investigators, that's when one of the subjects produced a pistol from his waistband and allegedly threatened to shoot the manager.
The subjects then fled in a silver Kia Sportage and were captured on several surveillance videos.
Those videos can be viewed on Youtube at these links:
