NOPD Seeking Suspect in Fifth District Aggravated Assault

The NOPD is seeking to locate and identify a suspect in the investigation of an aggravated assault with a firearm that occurred on March 10, 2020.

At about 11:45 p.m., the victim was involved in a fight with the pictured suspect at the intersection of Saint Claude Avenue and Louisa Street. The fight spilled over into the rear parking lot of a business in the 3100 block of Saint Claude Avenue. The suspect then allegedly produced a gun and fired multiple rounds at the victim, who was not struck by the gunfire. The two then relocated to the 111 block of Louisa Street, where the suspected reportedly fired additional gunshots at the victim.
