NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — The New Orleans Police Department arrested a man in the case of Gert Town business burglary, back in December.

According to the NOPD, at about 3:40 a.m. on Tuesday (Dec. 27), a subject went to a business in the 3000 block of South Carrollton Avenue and forced his way inside. The man identified as 66-year-old Eugene King reportedly took umbrellas and a step ladder.

Officers say at the time of the crime, King was seen riding a red bicycle with a white-walled rear tire. Two days later (Dec.29), King was arrested after a patrol unit saw him riding the same bike near the corner of Earhart Boulevard and Joliet Street, wearing the same clothes.
