NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - Two people were injured early Sunday (Oct. 9) by a man wielding a machete near Jackson Square in the French Quarter, New Orleans police said.

According to the NOPD, a 24-year-old woman got into a fight with the suspect, who “produced a machete” and cut the woman’s hand around 5:57 a.m. at the corner of St. Ann and Chartres streets.

Police said a 27-year-old man saw the altercation and tried to intervene, but the machete-wielding man cut him to the face and hand before fleeing the scene.

The NOPD said the two victims were treated at Tulane Medical Center, but did not disclose the severity of their injuries nor their conditions.

Police also have not said if they know the identity of the suspect or whether he has any relationship to either victim.

Sunday’s incident comes less than two weeks after the Sept. 27 arrest of Jamal Peters. Peters, 34, is accused of stabbing at least nine people -- mostly at random -- in or near the French Quarter last month.

Neither victim can speak as to the gender, race, height, etc of the machete wielding attacker????

Piss poor reporting at its finest.

Thank God Teedy is safe in Amsterdam. She could have been stabbed walking to the apartment that she’s living in illegally.

Gotta make sure this is a domestic situation where all involved know each other. That's what most of the violent crime is according to Teedy.

This happened close enough to my FORMER house in New Orleans for me to catch it on my security camera. (No, I'm not going to share the video).

If someone pulls a sword / machete / blade on you, shoot them. The interaction I linked took 45 seconds from beginning to end. I made it there before the cops, there was no way to help the victim.

I’m Shocked in 2022 we can still use gender as a description for suspects.

Starting to wonder if the other descriptive information is just to be understood?
