Persons of Interest Sought for Questioning in NOPD Homicide Investigation

The NOPD is seeking to locate two subjects identified as persons of interest for questioning in the ongoing investigation of a homicide on March 8, 2021 in the 3300 block of Leonidas Street.

Through investigation, NOPD Homicide Unit detectives have developed Tymaia Powell (pictured to left, black female, DOB: 11-27-2001) and Tyiara Solomon (pictured to right, black female, DOB; 09-26-2003) as persons of interest. Neither Powell nor Solomon is wanted on criminal charges at this time. However, detectives feel they have knowledge of information vital to the investigation and wish to interview them.

Anyone with additional information on this incident or on the whereabouts of the listed persons of interest is asked to contact NOPD Homicide Det. Lucretia Gantner detectives at 504-658-5300 or call anonymously to Crimestoppers of Greater New Orleans at 504-822-1111 or toll-free 1-877-903-STOP.
