21-year-old man New Orleans police described as a "person of interest" wanted for questioning about the recent robberies of Uptown restaurants turned himself into detectives Monday (Nov. 16), police said.

Police say Dwayne "Butter" Winns is not a suspect in the robberies at this time, but may have critical information about the crimes.

Over five weeks in August and September, three prominent Uptown businesses -- Monkey Hill Bar, Patois, and Atchafalaya Restaurant -- were robbed by armed, masked gunmen. All of the robberies occurred at night when customers were present during business hours.

The New Orleans Police Department, along with the FBI, Sunday evening (Nov. 15) asked the public's help locating Winns, who is also wanted on a charge related to a May homicide. Police say he turned himself in around 11 a.m. Monday.

I don’t think that is the mug shot, but she is a cute girl who is now in a lot of trouble and might not look so cute when she is released from prison if convicted and sentenced for attempted murder.

turned himself into detectives

Unless he's some sort of changeling, I believe the phrase is "turned himself in to."
