The NOPD is requesting assistance from the public in locating and identifying a suspect in the investigation of a business burglary on October 30, 2019.

At approximately 2:38 a.m., the pictured unknown male subject forced his way into a store in the 200 block of Magazine Street. While in the store, the subject grabbed multiple bottles of alcohol, boxes of cigarettes, boxes of candy and other food items. The subject made several trips into the store to remove these items.
