New Orleans man booked Tuesday with carjacking a dirt bike after pulling a woman off it on a street in Arabi; Bike later recovered in the city
Shiquille Robinson, 21, handcuffed in the sheriff’s Criminal Investigations Bureau before being booked with carjacking.
Shiquille Robinson was booked with carjacking and possession of 12 grams of marijuana with intent to distribute. Robinson admitted stealing the bike and later showed deputies where it was located in eastern New Orleans, Sheriff Pohlmann said.
Robinson was arrested after he arrived on an Arabi street to find out why deputies had stopped a car driven by his girlfriend, Brionne Harris, 25, also of New Orleans, the sheriff said.
Harris was stopped by Dep. Ryan Lopez on Alexander Street in Arabi because the vehicle she was in matched a description of a car with a busted windshield a woman drove away in on Monday at the scene of the carjacking.
The victim of the carjacking, an 18-year-old Arani woman, identified both Robinson and Harris after their arrests, as well as the car Harris was driving on Tuesday, the sheriff said.
Harris was booked Tuesday with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute – which was found in the vehicle she was driving – and with possession of a controlled substance in the presence of a juvenile, who was a child in Harris’ vehicle.
The victim had been riding the dirt bike and said she stopped at a stop sign at the intersection of Patricia Street at Rowley Boulevard in Arabi. She said Robinson exited a car he was in with Harris and went over to her, the sheriff said. As she began to drive away, she said, Robinson pulled her off the bike by her hair and drove off on the bike, with Harris fleeing in the car they both had been in, Sheriff Pohlmann said.
Robinson and Harris were booked into St. Bernard Parish Prison, pending a bond appearance before a judge.
