Suspect Identified in Residential Burglary on Bundy Road

The NOPD has obtained an arrest warrant for Marion Avila (DOB: 03-20-2001) in connection with a residence burglary which occurred on May 5, 2018 in the 6100 block of Bundy Road.

The victim told police that at about 8:30 a.m., he left his residence with his family. Upon returning at about 2:30 p.m., he observed his front window broken.

The victim said he contacted Avila, who reportedly demanded $400 to return the safe to the victim.
