Ray Davies shot in 2004

By Jack Brummet, Music Ed.

Ray Davies made the news in 2004 when he was shot in the leg while on vacation in New Orleans. Near the French Quarter, two muggers snatched his girlfriend, Suzanne Despies's purse at gunpoint, and Ray went after them. One of the muggers shot him in the leg, but the injuries weren't serious. The headline, which is from The Sun I think: “You Really Shot Me!”
