"I just walked off the practice field [at rookie minicamp] and heard about the incident, and that's all I know," Colts coach Tony Dungy said Friday. "We're obviously going to look into it. I haven't spoken to Marvin yet." Calls by ESPN to Harrison and his agent have not been returned. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said the league was "aware of the report, and we are looking into it." The source said the alleged victim came into the bar, Playmakers, around 5 p.m. and engaged in an argument with Harrison, who was at the bar. The victim then left the bar, heading to his car, with Harrison following. Gunfire broke out, the victim was hit in the hand, and a young girl was slightly injured by flying glass from a car that apparently was hit by a bullet.

Police came to scene, but the victim did not identify a shooter. On Wednesday, according to the source, ballistic tests showed that the gun that had fired the shots was a custom-made Belgian weapon, and police determined that Harrison owned such a gun. 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. The source said police were contacted Friday by an attorney representing a second alleged victim in the shooting, and police are now waiting for that individual to come forward.

I don't know why people do the things they do. Incredibly stupid move on his part if he did it.

Why don't we just save time and arrest every one who plays football.

No he can't.

And wow @ the story. He's such a mild-mannered player on the field, I'd never expect something like this from him.

This pisses me off. He is one of the best recievers to ever play IMO, but he just went and screwed the rest of his career up. Not like he had much left anyways.

The pistol involved.

Welcome to the official FN HERSTAL website

As advertised this Gun's Ammo can travel through 48 Layers of Kevlar at 50 Meters and is deadly accurate with little to no recoil.
Even though Marvin's relatively quiet, I've heard that he's not the nicest guy you'll ever come across.

Damn, these pro players are getting into more and more trouble off the field these days. Look at how many people in the NFL last year got suspended, or were in the news for dumb ****.
