520 _a"Even in a city numbered by violence, the surveillance tape was blood-curdling: three men, lying in wait at an open-air carwash on Louisiana Avenue, springing toward their targets with assault rifles, then calmly unleashing a hail of bullets at the unsuspecting victims. Frozen in time, video images from the July 26 [2003] shooting document brutality of a type that regularly places New Orleans among the most violent cities in America. Amazingly, the two victims survived their wounds. Even more amazingly--given the planning and precision of the attack--the men weren't intended to be victims at all. The shooting was a case of mistaken identity." (TIMES-PICAYUNE) This article discusses the "drug-fueled killings and retribution that has made...Calliope, formerly known as the B.W. Cooper public housing complex...one of the city's bloodiest" neighborhoods.
