LAFOURCHE PARISH - Thibodaux police are asking the public for assistance in identifying three suspects involved in an armed robbery that occurred on Oct. 22.

Police say around midnight three armed men walked into an unlocked apartment located in the 300 block of North Canal Bouleavrd and robbed its occupants. 

During the robbery, police say one of the victims tried to fight back and began to wrestle with one of the suspects. During their fight, the suspect shot the victim in the arm.
