NOPD Searches for Three Suspects Wanted in Pickpocket Incident

The NOPD is seeking assistance from the public in identifying and locating three suspects who are wanted for their involvement in a pickpocket incident that occurred on Monday, May 7, 2018.

The victim told police he was leaving a business located on Bourbon Street when three unknown females began following him and his group and attempted to engage them. The victim reportedly approached the intersection of Canal and Bourbon Streets when he felt someone brush against him. Shortly after, the victim attempted to reach for his wallet and noticed it was missing from his pocket. He then contacted his bank and learned that multiple fraudulent transactions were made.

The pictured subjects were observed on surveillance video fraudulently using the victim’s debit card at an ATM located in the 300 block of Bourbon Street.

Anyone with information regarding the subjects’ whereabouts should contact Eighth District detectives at 504-658-6080. Citizens with information that can help solve crimes are asked to call Crimestoppers at 504-822-1111 or toll-free at 1-877-903-STOP.
