Ferguson said for the last year, police have been dealing with "bolder, brazen criminals" willing to commit violent crimes "in broad daylight."

"We cannot accept this as the norm," Ferguson said.

But Greater Mid-City Business Association Tim Levy, who got word of the crime and questioned Ferguson at the scene Monday, said brutal, gruesome criminal acts like this one have become common in New Orleans.

"A lot of New Orleanians are not going to be surprised (by this crime)," Levy said. "As horrific as it is, they're not going to be surprised."


sounds a lot like its "the norm", officer

Let’s get some youth intervention going. Smart boards in classrooms. Midnight basketball. Slam poetry. We can do this.

Not a bad area in NOLA. I've often been to a business on Canal. Don't have to and won't go anymore.

I’m sure they were on their lunch break or heading back to Ben Franklin to fill in their internship timesheets.

That’s been a sketchy area since the 1970s but this is a whole new level of crime.

right now is when everybody's front door cameras, car cameras, home security cameras should be checked around where the car was left.

Or is there insufficient manpower? Or uninspired manpower?

Now folks wait to hear if she was a friend. A few of mine in that age are still there and we worry for them. Deep down
gut wrenching worry.

Information obtained from the scene revealed two teenagers carjacked an elderly woman. The woman’s arm was trapped through the seatbelt of her vehicle, causing it to be ripped from her body during the incident.

Witnesses report trying to block the suspects in, but they swerved through and drove off.


I don’t understand what would possess a human being to treat his fellow man (or woman) in this manner.

Nevermind, these aren’t human beings, they’re animals.

People like this are literal savages. They have no regard for anything nor ability to think of the consequences.
