Suspect Wanted in Theft on Canal Street

The NOPD is seeking assistance in locating and identifying a female subject believed to be responsible for a theft that occurred in the 500 block of Canal Street on September 16, 2017.

Just before 4 a.m., the victim brought an unknown black female back to his hotel room in the area. The victim later fell asleep and, when he woke hours later at about 7:30 a.m., discovered the female and all of his property missing from the room.
