The following are characters who have worked with Omar Little on the HBO drama The Wire. Omar and his associates make their living robbing drug dealers.
For the first three seasons, Omar mainly targets the Barksdale Organization. Later, he targets the Stanfield Organization, culminating with a robbery of the entire New Day Co-Op.
Omar and his crew never go after any "citizens" uninvolved in the drug trade. His crew typically comprises Baltimore stick-up artists whose motive for collaborating with Omar is the money associated with robbing drug dealers and stash houses. Omar is gay, and many other members of his crew have an LGBT background (e.g., Omar's boyfriends)
