Wish the story had a few more details, like who shot him? The police, or the
thief he was chasing? And was the woman named Lola?

Kinks' Ray Davies Shot in Robbery Attempt
NEW ORLEANS - Singer-songwriter Ray Davies (news) of the Kinks was shot in
the leg while chasing thieves who snatched a purse from a woman he was with,
police said Monday. He was not seriously injured.
Police said Davies, 59, and the woman were walking along the Quarter's
Burgundy Street around 8:30 p.m. Sunday when the theft and shooting
happened.
Davies was treated and released at a hospital, Capt. Marlon Defillo, a
police spokesman, said. One suspect was captured within hours of the
shooting and another was being sought.
The Kinks, part of the 1960s British invasion, had a string of hits
including "You Really Got Me," "Sunny Afternoon," "All Day and All of the
Night" and "Lola." Davies founded the band, known for its hard-edged,
guitar-driven sound and witty lyrics, with his brother Dave.
