The NOPD is seeking to locate four individuals wanted in connection with an armed robbery that occurred on April 21, 2018 in the 1900 block of St. Ann Street.

At about 3:50 a.m., the victim accompanied the male subject pictured at top left from a bar in the 1900 block of Orleans Avenue to his vehicle, due to the individual informing the victim he was frightened in the neighborhood. The individual then reportedly lured the victim into a laundromat located in the 1900 block of St. Ann Street, where he was accosted by several more black males and a transgender female. During the incident, one of the unknown black males stated that he was armed with a gun and demanded the victim’s property. The victim said he attempted to fight back, but was allegedly struck in the face and body by the transgender female. During the incident, the victim’s wallet and watch were reportedly taken forcefully from his possession.

The two additionally pictured subjects, also pictured together with a third subject, were seen attempting to use the victim’s debit card at an ATM in the area, but were met with negative results.

Anyone with information regarding the identities and/or whereabouts of the pictured individuals is asked to contact NOPD First District detectives at 504-658-6010or anonymously to CrimeStoppers at 504-822-1111 or toll free at 1-877-903-STOP.
