Suspects Wanted in Business Burglary on Chef Menteur Highway

The NOPD is seeking assistance from the public in locating and identifying two suspects seen on surveillance video burglarizing a business on June 24, 2017.

At around 3:05 a.m., two unknown black males were seen on surveillance video driving a gold Chevrolet Silverado into the parking lot of a business located in the 15000 block of Chef Menteur Highway. The suspects then removed the chains and lock from the front gate and sprayed one of the security cameras with spray paint before entering the business.

During the incident, the offenders took thousands of dollars from a safe. Through the course of the investigation, the suspects names are believed to be “Mike” and “Eddie or Eric.”

The vehicle involved in this incident is described as having a broken headlight on the driver side and no tint on the front windows. No license plate was observed on vehicle at the time of the incident. 

If you have any valuable information on the location or identification of these suspects, please contact any Seventh District detective at 504-658-6070. Citizens with information that can help solve a crime are asked to call Crimestoppers at  504-822-1111 or toll-free 1-877-903-STOP.
