New Orleans police identified 15-year-old Ryan Davis as one of the suspected juveniles responsible for a string of armed robberies and carjacking across the city.
Police said Wednesday (June 8) that detectives obtained a warrant for Davis' arrest. Once in custody, he is expected to be charged in connection with two carjackings and five completed or attempted armed robberies committed from May 28 to June 1, police said in a press release.
The attacks came during a seven-day period in which New Orleans saw 42 armed robberies or carjackings, roughly twice the weekly average during the first three months of the year.
Davis and two other teens were inside a stolen silver Toyota Camry stopped last week (June 2) by officers near Lotus and Gladiolus streets. Police arrested one of the three teens, a 15-year-old whose name has not been released, and for whom charges are pending. But Davis and the as-yet unidentified third teen managed to escape officers.
The victims of at least six armed robberies have described a silver vehicle as being used by their assailants. And a silver Camry and black Dodge Caravan were used in a carjacking last week that ended with the arrest of another 15-year-old already on probation and wearing an ankle monitor at the time.
On Wednesday, police said investigators are still trying to determine how many of the robberies were connected. But commanders for the 2nd and 6th district, where some of the incidents took place, said the group that included Davis is believed to be responsible for 13 recent armed robberies or carjackings. And police suspect that a
"It doesn't matter that he's 15," Superintendent Michael Harrison said of Davis, "he stepped up and did some grown-man crimes."

That’s the look of a boy who’s going to get free room and board for most of the rest of his life on the taxpayers dime.
The mayor is white but he is still a knee jerk liberal leftest. The best way to deal with crime in NOLA is still “street justice”. A lot of that goes on.
What in the world was his mother thinking. At least he was able to overcome his name.
Now that's funny. She should have named him something like Ryannious.
Skittles!
He looks mean and squinty beyond his years. !5... but I wouldn’t be surprised if he had sired himself on some willing dam.
He’s looking down his nose at everyone who gets in his way. Kind of like an uneducated but manlier Obama! /S
I know right? At least he has an American name, instead of being named after spices or obscure African tribesman.
Nope. Dindu nuffins, either.
Amish how in the HELL did I know????
Harvard has a scholar in Gender Studies for him when he gets out of jail.
You did know that he was just trying to raise enough money to go to college and better himself. BARF!!!!
Deport the baby mamma, for failing to raise a US citizen with tax payer funds.
Dindu Nuffins.
The white around his lips tells me he smokes crack. He'll be dead in a few short years, probably not from crack itself but from the life of being a crackhead.
That might just be his problem...
How in the world can you get street cred with white boy name like Ryan?
Heck, she even spelled it correctly, too...
He’d look a lot more humble with two black eyes, a broken nose and jaw and a few stitches in his forehead. And a few Police dog bites around the edges.
To #24. Instead of Ryannious, try Rynoanus. Easier to spell.
But only ten percent of it.
...Now lets see who will be the first to say it....
Aspiring rap star?
Turning his life around?
These and the obama son and Amish are the only 4 clichés I can think of.
Nope. Knew it was another of obama’s sons.
