Didn't Harrison face some sort of assault charges a couple of years back?

I bet Bill Simmons had something to do with this. LOL.

marvin harrison? what the hell.... you would never think of him shooting someone yet alone lying about it he seemed like such a high character guy but we will see when the whole story unfolds

So you think he'd be honest enough to admit when shot someone? I am trying to wrap my head around those mental gymnastics

Re: Colts Marvin Harrison questioned in Philly Shooting
 

coulda been self defense and that could equal to someone admitting to that so those mental gymnastics should not hurt you while u tryna wrap them around that head of yours

Re: Colts Marvin Harrison questioned in Philly Shooting
 

Who knows what the facts are but this doesn't look good. If this handgun is some ridiculously high end, truly custom piece from friggin' belgium, then it's gonna be pretty hard for MH to deny.

Re: Colts Marvin Harrison questioned in Philly Shooting
 

I thought that Marvin was a class act, hopefully it won't taint his career for doing something dumb like this.

Yeah, in Hawaii during the Pro Bowl, apparently two guys from his "posse" jumped some kids looking for an autograph. Details to come.

Brian Turner calls our attention to [URL="http://www.indystar.com/articles/6/233016-2286-102.html"][COLOR=#0000ff]the sordid tale of Indianapolis Colts wide-receiver Marvin Harrison’s alleged ass-whupping of 3 youthful autograph seekers. [/COLOR][/URL]

[I]Marvin Harrison’s sixth trip to Honolulu for the NFL’s Pro Bowl might be one of his more memorable for all the wrong reasons.

According to the lawsuit, the three boys approached Harrison outside a Louis Vuitton store at the Hilton Hawaiian Village for his autograph and to take his photograph. Harrison was on his cell phone at the time and told the boys to wait. Shortly thereafter, the two men with Harrison, who are not identified but remain part of the lawsuit nonetheless, arrived on the scene and the alleged assault ensued.

The lawsuit alleges that “without any provocation, the two yet to be identified males and subsequently Mr. Harrison violently and physically attacked the minor plaintiffs.”
[/I]
I know this sounds like an open and shut case, but where were the parents during all of this? As someone who is fucking sick to death of autograph-hound adolescents interrupting my cell phone calls while shopping at Louis Vuitton, I applaud Harrison’s decisive measures …and suggest that these grifters and their ill-mannered offspring be the ones deserving of the full wrath of the legal justice system.
And while we’re on the subject of Hawaii, what kind of degenerates willingly attend the Pro Bowl? Other than Donovan McNabb, I mean. Or bring their kids to such a rotten event?

If true, think this affects his HOF bid?

[QUOTE=onlydarksets;446595]If true, think this affects his HOF bid?[/QUOTE]

if its true? how can it not be true? seems like all the evidence is there,probably the only reason he hasnt been charged yet is because of who he is.Custom gun,registered in his name,says its was at home,lied about it,in a bucket at car wash with him,recently been fired,guy is guilty as shit

Re: Colts Marvin Harrison questioned in Philly Shooting
 

The guy he shot was most likely an Eagle fan, which should reduce the charges to a misdemeanor. That is if MH did it at all. I'd like to know where Mark Furman was during all of this.

It certainly sounds bad, but I'm kind of surprised you sound so certain. The details are still sketchy. Even assuming that his gun was indeed used in the shooting, how do you know he fired it?

Either way Harrison is screwed, PA State Law states that if the law can not determine who fired the gun, then the person that the gun is registered to will be prosecuted. And from what I saw on ESPN.COM the gun is registered to Harrison.

Re: Colts Marvin Harrison questioned in Philly Shooting
 

This smells a lot like the Taylor case circa 2005.

I'm predicting he won't get convicted of a felony here, though the trial should be quiet the circus.

Obviously not good on his criminal record, but I don't think he does any jail time for a misdemeanor.

This story is pretty surprising, but I don't really see this affecting his football career.

Yeah, he will probably plead out, but my point was that he still "[I]should[/I]" be charged either for firing the gun or for it being it registered to him...

Re: Colts Marvin Harrison questioned in Philly Shooting
 

Maybe this isn't appropriate, but this totally makes me think of the Wayne Brady sketch from Chapelle show. Marvin Harrison just doesnt seem to fit this bill.

I really hope this is the case. I like Harrison alot. This sucks because they probably already have his bust made for Canton and he has to go and shoot somebody. I hope this does not affect his football career. Can you imagine what Peyton must be thinking? He seems like such a class act. I wish good luck to Harrison.

Personal attacks, yet another day during the offseason.

Re: Colts Marvin Harrison questioned in Philly Shooting
 

Well, it just goes to show you can't judge a book by its cover. Because Chad Johnson is loud and brash, it's assumed he's some sort of a-hole. And even though he's never been arrested, charged, suspected of any crime or misdemeanor many woudn't be surprised if this story was about him. Because Marvin Harrison is quiet and professional (even though he apparently almost never joins the team for film sessions and rarely goes into the huddle) it's assumed he's some sort of saint who could never possibly be guilty of such a crime.

Now I'm not saying he is, just saying let's not make assumptions.

Re: Colts Marvin Harrison questioned in Philly Shooting
 

Harrison always reminded me of a modern day Art Monk. Just a quiet and reserved person.

If he is guilty, I will be disappointed. Always felt he was different, but
looks like I may have been wrong.

The NFL needs more Darrell Green's and Art Monk's.

[B]Agent says Harrison not involved in reported shooting[/B]

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Marvin Harrison's agent says reports that Harrison is under investigation in his hometown of Philadelphia in connection with a shooting this week are untrue.

A shooting took place Tuesday near Harrison's North Philadelphia bar, a source told Anthony Gargano of Philadelphia's WIP Radio.

Harrison's agent, Tom Condon, told ESPN's Chris Mortensen: "I've spoken with Marvin and I've spoken with his attorney, and they say the reports are erroneous. Marvin was not involved in any shooting, and he is not the subject of this investigation."

Condon declined to answer any other questions.

Re: Colts Marvin Harrison questioned in Philly Shooting
 

For what it's worth, one of the confirmed "facts" of the case according to witnesses is he beat up a guy using "ninja hands" (not even joking as thats what witenesses were reported saying). The good news is that apparently the guy he beat up was an ex-con who served time for murder, but thats only speculation.

Re: Colts Marvin Harrison questioned in Philly Shooting
 

Yeah, I'm not convicting Harrison just yet. Just because the gun was registered to him doesn't mean he's the one who fired it, one of his so called friends could've taken it and tried to set him up. Do they have Harrison's prints on the gun on the handle? I'm just gonna wait and see where this leads to before I call him guilty.

I disagree, I'm pretty sure it was him. At first when I heard the story about the kids in Hawaii, I didn't believe it, but now that this has come up it seems that a pattern has emerged. Maybe thats why he was so quiet all this time :D

On a side note he apparently owns 25 guns, so personally that scares me a little. After which having cops show up to car wash, lying that the gun wasn't there only to find it minutes later in a bucket doesn't really bode well for Harrison in my eyes.

Personally I just want to get to the bottom of this and find out if the only reciever who was worth modeling in terms of conduct is nothing more then a fraud. I have my doubts, and if the guy Harrison beat up really is an ex-murderer then I won't blame Harrison in the least. However the gun shooting apparently led to a little girl getting hurt by flying glass, and personally thats something that I think is hard to overlook.

Sources: Six of casings found after shooting came from Harrison's gun[/B]

Six of the bullet casings found after an April 29 shooting near Marvin Harrison's car wash and garage came from a gun that belongs to the Colts wide receiver, Philadelphia police sources told ESPN's Sal Paolantonio.

Police returned to the scene of the crime Monday to examine bullet holes in two residences after new information was provided to police by an alleged third victim of the shooting.

Harrison's representatives say Harrison was not present during the shooting incident, and that his gun was not involved. Monday, Harrison's attorney declined comment. Police say they have no suspects in the case.

"He was interviewed," Lt. Frank Vanore said Friday. "Why he was interviewed, that is all part of the investigation. No one is a suspect."

I hope someone just stole his gun and used it, because he is one of my all time favorite players.

What a total dumbass. If you're Marvin Harrison, why are you owning a business in a real bad part of town anyway? You're just asking for trouble. Does this guy have a brain at all?

Agreed. It's not like he opened a strip club - it's a car wash.

Here is my point. He owns a car wash and some kind of bar called Playmakers in a crack infested part of town where the crime rate is very high. Why? I live near Washington DC. If I had a ton of $ like he did, I'm not opening up anything in Southeast Washington DC. Sorry but there is a good chance some bad shit is going to eventually go down and my name, whether I like it or not, is going to be dragged down in the mud.

I'm from D.C. and live here, and I would totally open up a place in South East. A good portion of the people that work on the Hill actually live in South East. But I take it you're referring to east of the Anacostia river, because all of South East isn't that bad.

If everyone avoids the crime infested places, things will never change.
