Harrison Involved in Shooting


Marvin Harrison, wide receiver for the Indianapolis Colts, has been under investigation, for a shooting that has happened in North Philadelphia. This happened on April 29, where Harrison and a guy in a bar owned by Harrison, supposedly got into an argument. It was reported that as the guy was trying to leave, Harrison followed him outside of the bar and then shots were fired. The guy was hit in the hand and a 2 year old boy was hit under the eye with a piece of flying glass. The victim who was hit in the hand did not identify the shooter, and it was reported that a Belgian gun was used in the shooting. Harrison admitted to police that he does own such a gun, but it never left his home in a suburb of Philadelphia. A Belgian gun was found at the site of a car wash when investigators were interviewing Harrison about a half mile away from the bar. The car wash is also owned by Harrison. The gun that was found in the car wash was proved with ballistics tests that around seven shots were fired from that gun. No one has been arrested and there have been no deaths, but the investigation is pending. Harrison has been one of the most productive wide receivers in NFL history. He is one of only four wide receivers with more than 1,000 receptions in history. What will happen to Harrison? Will this mess up the rest of his career? Will Harrison serve a prison term?
