The New Orleans Police Department is in search of a burglary suspect and is turning to the local community for assistance. In an incident dating back to late last year, security cameras caught a man allegedly breaking into a business located in the 13,000 block of Old Gentilly Road. The reported burglary took place in the early morning hours of December 12, 2024, at approximately 3:49 a.m., and the NOPD is now actively seeking both the identity and location of the individual involved.
According to NOPD News, the suspect, described as a white male, managed to bypass a metal fence before entering the business and stealing various items. The same individual may have been involved in other similar incidents, as there have been previous burglaries reported at the same location. Surveillance footage serves as the primary lead in the case, but no solid identification has yet been made.
Authorities are reaching out through public channels to gather any information that may lead to the apprehension of the suspect. The NOPD urges anyone with knowledge about the pictured subject's identity, his whereabouts, or any other details pertaining to these burglaries to step forward. Community members are encouraged to contact the Seventh District detectives directly at (504) 658-6070 with any pertinent information they might have.
