On May 16, NOPD Second District officers arrested a 15-year-old boy for two counts of armed robbery and two counts of use of a firearm in a robbery. The arrest was made in the investigation of an incident on May 15 in the 4300 block of Willow Street.
In that incident, a 31-year-old man and 35-year-old woman were approached from behind just after 10 p.m. while walking near the Ochsner Baptist medical complex. Two gunmen demanded their wallets and other items, and they complied.
