Superintendent Michael S. Harrison today announced the results of a months-long undercover narcotics operation that culminated in the arrest of 44 suspected drug dealers. In partnership with the Louisiana State Police, the NOPD conducted operations throughout the summer to identify and locate suspected narcotics dealers, and to build strong cases against each.

As part of the NOPD’s summer crime suppression initiatives, partners from the LSP provided high-visibility presence in certain districts throughout the city while undercover NOPD officers built cases against suspected drug dealers. The collaboration ultimately yielded 70 arrest warrants and the arrest of 44 individuals, listed below.

“The City of New Orleans is a safer place to be today thanks to the efforts of our undercover officers and our partners in the LSP,” Harrison said. “With today’s announcement, we are sending a clear message that drug dealers are not welcome in our communities and that our officers will take strong action to bring every one of them to justice.”
