Suspect Sought for Armed Robbery on Viola Drive

NOPD is looking for Marcus McClaine in connection with an armed robbery.

 

The victim reported that on November 3, 2016, at approximately 6:30 p.m., he was walking in the 4600 block of Viola Street when he was approached by an unknown black male and forced into the backseat of a red vehicle.  The vehicle then drove off and the unknown male, later identified as Marcus McClaine (DOB: 7-07-1997), pointed a dark-colored handgun at the victim and demanded his property.

 

The victim complied and was able to escape the vehicle after a brief struggle.
