The NOPD is seeking assistance in identifying and locating an individual caught on surveillance video and believed to be responsible for burglarizing a business in the 1900 block of Casa Calvo Street on April 17, 2017.

Surveillance video captured at Clara’s Little Lambs Preschool at about 11:03 p.m. showed an unknown black male enter through an unlocked window and wander through several rooms, consuming food and beverage from a staff break room. The suspect is also viewed constructing a makeshift bed in one of the classrooms and going to sleep.

The suspect was then seen on surveillance video at about 6:43 a.m. exiting the location through the same window through which he gained entry, carrying two bags of stolen property and fleeing in an unknown direction.
