NOLA Radio: WWL’s Scott Paisant Robbed, Beaten

New Orleans police are searching for four men who robbed a New Orlean radio host as he was on his way to work in the Central Business District on Wednesday morning. Scott Paisant, host of WWL Radio's 'The Scoot Show' said he was on his way to work around 3:50 a.m. when he was assaulted and robbed by the men.

NOLA.com reports Paisant told police that he was walking in the 600 block of Gravier Street when he was approached by four men who had been walking on the other side of the street.

Paisant told police that one of the men blocked his path and began feeling his pockets. Paisant tried walking away but the man pushed him to the ground, causing him to fall into the street.

"I tried getting away and it was at that point that they started hitting me," Paisant said.

Paisant said that while he was being attacked by the man, the other three stood around and laughed, adding that he was struck around four or five times by his assailant.
