Two men dressed in women's lingerie robbed a man at a motel in the 9300 block of Airline Highway on Friday about 7:25 a.m., according to the NOPD. Police said the man met with two women -- or so he thought -- in a motel room.

Once the man realized the lingerie-clad pair were in fact men, he tried to leave the room, police said. That's when a third person came out of the motel room's bathroom, and all three suspects beat the victim, ransacked his pockets, and fled with his cash, credit cards and cell phone, police said.

One of the suspects, Herbert James Bickham of Marrero, is known to wear women's clothing and wigs, Police said. He tends to frequent the Airline Highway motel and another motel in the 2400 block of Tulane Avenue, police said. Police would not say how Bickham was identified, saying that information is part of the ongoing investigation.
