NOPD Seeking to Identify Suspect in Third District Theft

The NOPD is requesting the public’s assistance to aid in identifying and locating a subject sought in a theft incident in the 3700 block of South Carrollton Avenue on May 1, 2019.

At about 11:05 p.m., the pictured unknown subject was seen entering the CVS Pharmacy - which was reportedly closed at the time – by use of a key to open the door. The subject then reportedly used one of the security codes assigned to one of the managers to disarm the security alarm, and then used a key to enter the manager’s office, where he used the code to the safe to unlock it and remove a large amount of cash. Store managers advised police that the subject is not an employee of the business.

Anyone with information regarding this incident or the pictured subject is asked to contact NOPD Third District detectives at 504-658-6030, or call anonymously to Crimestoppers at 504-822-1111 or toll-free at 1-877-903-STOP.
