19 Feb Incident at Magazine & State
On Friday, 2/16/2024 at about 7:23 pm, our private patrol officer received a call from an individual reporting that he was assaulted while walking past the Starbucks at Magazine & State with his family. Per the SEI report, the victim stated that “an unidentified white male wearing a black hoodie jacket and Whole Foods bags in his hand assaulted him by hitting him in the face with his fist.” A Starbucks employee stated the suspect appeared to be a homeless person with long dark hair and a beard. The victim indicated he was fine and would call the police when he got home.
The victim lives in another district and his wife posted about the incident on NextDoor.com. Responses to her post included comments that a man fitting that description has been sitting at Starbucks sidewalk tables daily since just before Mardi Gras.
