In a disturbing video that has taken the internet by storm, a white woman’s unprovoked attack on a Black veteran at a Louisiana casino has left viewers outraged. The incident, which occurred on August 3rd in Bossier City, Louisiana, captured a troubling scene of racial aggression that has sparked widespread condemnation. The victim, identified as Devon Leslie Jr., initially hesitated before sharing the video publicly, but now he’s determined to shed light on the shocking incident.
Sharing his experience, Leslie wrote on August 5th, “Now that I’ve had time to give it some thought, I want it known about these two people! This woman went off on me, hit me in the face and kicked me in the back, because I sat too close to her and her boyfriend. So this is how I was treated.” He commended the intervention of the Bossier City Police and the casino staff, who supported him during the altercation. Leslie posted the video on his Facebook profile, and it quickly gained traction, spreading like wildfire across social media platforms.
The video captures the intense confrontation, where a blonde woman launches into a tirade of yelling and attempts to kick Leslie, who calmly records the incident on his phone. Her male companion initially tries to deescalate the situation but eventually joins in the abusive behavior.

Even as her boyfriend tries to restrain her, Dison continues her outburst, displaying an unsettling disregard for the consequences of her behavior being captured on video. In the midst of the chaos, the woman hurls expletives and asks, “Where the f–k are you from?” while targeting Leslie with a kick. Her boyfriend, displaying aggressive racism, hurls another racial slur, further escalating the tension.
The response to the video was swift and visceral. One social media user expressed disbelief, stating, “He’s a soldier?? Look at his profile pic. Man literally fought for their freedom and this is what they chose to do with it.

The lack of intervention by casino security drew criticism as well. (facebook.com) One individual questioned, “Have to assume if the roles were reversed they’d have security there pretty quickly.” This sentiment highlighted the disturbing reality of bias in such incidents. Others drew parallels to recent events, referencing the use of folding chairs in a racially charged altercation on an Alabama dock. The anger and frustration of those who witnessed the video were palpable, as they grappled with the disturbing display of racism.
Following the incident, both Dison and her boyfriend were arrested, yet Leslie’s call for accountability and justice continues. He urged the identification of the couple’s employers, stating, “I hope that anyone that has any idea who they are or where they work at would be amazing to let their employers know who they have working for them.” The intention here is clear: to expose the offenders and ensure they face the consequences of their actions.
In a country that has long struggled with issues of racial discrimination, this video serves as a stark reminder that such prejudices persist. It highlights the urgent need for continued conversations and efforts to combat racism, even in seemingly ordinary situations. As viewers grapple with the disturbing images, they are left to ponder not only the actions of the individuals involved but also the broader implications for society as a whole.
