Paul Bissonnette Assaulted by Six Men in Scottsdale

Former NHL player and broadcaster Paul Bissonnette was involved in a violent altercation with six men at a Scottsdale restaurant on November 24, resulting in his hospitalization. Surveillance footage released by local police shows Bissonnette being assaulted after he intervened to protect restaurant staff from a group of unruly patrons. The incident escalated from inside Houston's restaurant to a nearby CVS parking lot, where Bissonnette was outnumbered but managed to escape. Following the fight, all six suspects—Danny Bradley, Henry Mesker, John Carroll, Edward Jennings, William Carroll, and Sean Daley—were arrested and charged with assault, with some facing additional charges of disorderly conduct. Notably, Sean Daley has been indicted for causing injury to Bissonnette while he was impaired. This incident has drawn attention not only for the violence but also due to concerns raised by a college student who believes he was assaulted by some of the same individuals days earlier.
