Two suspects wanted for French Quarter beating Police released surveillance video of two suspects wanted in connection with the beating of a man in the 800 block of Conti Street. view full article The musician, Doug Potter, is now in an induced coma. WWLTV reported:
A well-known New Orleans musician is hospitalized and unconscious after being jumped in the French Quarter.
Doug Potter’s family and friends believe he may have been a target of the “knockout” game.
“Always here when we needed him. Really nice man,” said Chef Rick Tyler of Cafe Beignet.
Steamboat Willie and his New Orleans Jazz Band entertained music lovers Tuesday night inside the Bourbon Street courtyard venue. The cafe is also where fellow musician Potter plays three times a week.
On Monday night it was suppose to be business as usual.
“It’s a terrible tragedy. I was the one that let him out the gate last night. I left 10 minutes after he did, so it could have been any of us,” Tyler said.
“According to witnesses as well as video tape, two individuals just took it upon themselves to assault, and badly hurt him. He fell into the street,” said David Potter, the victim’s brother.
Since the brutal attack the 54-year-old bass player has undergone intensive brain surgery at University Hospital, where family and friends continue to pray for his recovery.
Friends confirm he’s now in an induced coma.
“Get these people off the street. I’ve had it. You live here all your life and you have to deal with something like that,” said David Potter.
As Potter remains in intensive care, loved ones are grappling to understand why the musician with such a “big heart” was the target of such a violent and senseless attack.

Hey! I know that guy!.....He’s a cornerback for the Seattle Seahawks!..............
Will we have to wait till someone is killed before the MSM and that POS Holder acknowledge that these cowardly acts are more than kids having fun?? You can damn well bet they’ll squeal “TRAYVON” the first time one of these punks chooses a target that isn’t caught off guard & is packing, and I believe that day is coming soon...
Smells like pee and vomit, as it should.
They both need .45 caliber suppositories.
Hold Obama responsible for this.
His Minions feel Empowered by HIM.
HE HAS EXCITED THIS VIOLENCE.
When you have black racist bastard as AG and a black racist bastard as his boss, this is what you get.
Meanwhile, a traffic jam on a bridge becomes a Federal Case.
But...but... the libtard media told us Knock out game is a made up right-wing boogie man designed to foment hate.
I’m sure no racism was involved here. Move along folks.
“....generations of feral black youth, who have been raised with no morals, no values, and no respect for human life.”
.
And nothing but single mothers.
I mean.......really? You look at that picture and can’t help but think to yourself, “you just can’t make up this stuff”.
In a previous life, I lived in New Orleans; worked for an Oil Company there. The stories and crime scenes that come out of there are purely and simply bizarre to the point that most people can’t wrap their minds around the situation.
Way, way overrated as a tourist attraction.
There's your problem. It's antiseptic.
Those are no doubt effective. But for a real clean out, I favor 12 gauge magnums with 000 buck. Got two boxes at home.
You are probably right!
looks to me like it (he) comes pre-equipped with “apply justice here” mark. How convenient.

The victim is my best friend’s uncle.
” grappling to understand why the musician with such a “big heart” was the target of such a violent and senseless attack.”
Hard to understand? Here it is. He was attacked because he’s WHITE! Feral subhuman youths think it’s a lot of fun to punch and knock out a White person. It’s done out of hatred and racism, and they are given a free pass by the law and the media.
People have already been killed in the knockout “game”, including an 80-something yo vet, Delbert Belton.
More than one, in just what strictly counts as the “knockout game”, ie, not counting the infant shot in the face, the elderly white women, including a nun, raped and beaten, some to death, a young boy murdered by a black woman using a blow torch, the Channon Christian and Christopher Newsome torture/murders, and more.
