Marvin Harrison Reportedly Involved In Shooting

Michael David Smith of AOL FANHOUSE learns that Marvin Harrison may have been involved in a shooting incident.

Anthony Gargano of WIP radio reports that Harrison was working at his bar in Philadelphia last Tuesday, when a man came in and began arguing with the Colts receiver:

According to Gargano, police have uncovered a gun registered to Harrison in connection with the incident. His report further states that a fistfight broke out when Harrison escorted a man out of his bar, called Playmakers. When the man fled, gunfire was exchanged. The man’s car was struck by a bullet and his hand was grazed, Gargano reported.

ESPN further reports that “a young girl was slightly injured by flying glass from a car that apparently was hit by a bullet.”

Police reportedly did ballistic tests, and determined that the shots were fired by a custom-made Belgian handgun - similar to a weapon that Harrison owns:

Police then went to a Philadelphia car wash owned by Harrison to question him about the gun. Harrison admitted owning such a weapon, but claimed it never left his suburban Philadelphia home. However, the source said the gun was discovered in a bucket at the car wash, and tests showed that it had fired seven bullets that matched those found at the scene.

Harrison has not yet been charged or arrested. But Gargano tells ESPN NEWS that police are currently getting their “ducks in a row” in preparing their case against Harrison.

Of all the recent problem players in the NFL (Michael Vick, Pacman Jones, Chad Johnson), who would have thought that mild-mannered Marvin would be joining their ranks.

    It’s the mustache. It lulls you into a sense of security.

    Buzz is like the middle manager of sportswriting. He doesn’t give a crap whether or not what he says makes any sense to today’s world. All he’s worried about is keeping his job.

    Guess what Buzz? I make a nice living, and I don’t even have to smoke 5 packs a day or sit at a typewriter and “pound out a story” before the deadline. Get with the times Gramps. There is more to the world than your job security. Be a dinosaur and become motor oil for all I care. The world is changing. Move over into the left lane and keep your blinker on so I can run you over.
