NOPD is searching for two subjects who are wanted for shoplifting from a business located in the 3600 block of MacArthur Boulevard.

On Monday, May 14, 2018 an unknown male subject wearing a dark colored t-shirt entered the business at or around 11:24 a.m. and proceeded to the clothing aisle. The second subject, identified as known shoplifter Shawn Miller (DOB: 08-18-1973), entered the business moments prior to the first subject and began speaking to the cashier on duty, who directed him to leave. The subject refused to leave until his accomplice completed the theft and then fled the location.

During the investigation, officers reviewed surveillance video footage and observed the perpetrator filling a plastic bag with several packs of t-shirts.

Anyone with additional information regarding the wanted subjects should call Fourth District detectives at 504-658-6040. 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.
