Police interview Colts receiver Harrison about Philly shooting

 

PHILADELPHIA -- Indianapolis Colts star receiver Marvin Harrison was interviewed by police about a shooting near his North Philadelphia car wash this week.

Lt. Frank Vanore said the investigation of Tuesday's shooting was continuing. Harrison has not been arrested or charged.

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

Vanore told WCAU-TV the shooting occurred near 25th and Thompson streets, near a car wash owned by Harrison and about a half-mile from a bar also owned by the All-Pro receiver.

Earlier, radio station WIP, citing unidentified sources, reported the alleged shooting victim argued with Harrison at Playmakers bar. The victim left and headed to his car, Harrison followed and gunfire broke out, the station reported. The alleged victim was shot in the hand and did not identify the shooter, according to the radio station.

Varone also said a child was hit in the eyes by broken glass, but was treated and released from a hospital.

Harrison, a prep football star at Philadelphia's Roman Catholic High, has owned Playmakers since July 2004, according to state records.

Harrison's agent, Tom Condon, denied the player was involved in the shooting.

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

It was business as usual Friday night at the bar, located in the middle of the block in a neighborhood of rowhouses. Through two large picture windows, a handful of patrons could be seen sitting at the bar, and others were playing pool amid framed pro football jerseys on the walls.

A man working the door at Playmakers refused to comment on the media reports involving Harrison and would not allow a reporter to enter.

After the first day of their rookie minicamp, Colts coach Tony Dungy said he knew little more than had been reported.

"My phone has been ringing, too, but I don't have any details," Dungy said. "I really don't have any more information than you do."

You have to admit this does not look good!, 1. He admitted to having this type of Gun!, 2. He said it was at his home, and they found it at his car wash. 3. Its not like this was 38 special used all over this country this was a Belgin weapon that was custom made  and the ballistics test matched his weapon. However the weird part so far is the so called victim did not ID anyone. There is mo ...(more)

Marvin Harrison was one of my favorite receivers of all-time, and reading this shocked me because he seemed like a good character guy. What will the Colts do with...or without him? Is he legend or is he an OJ Simpson?

Nothing has been proven. When the victim was asked who the shooter was, he could not identify a shooter. If it was Marvin Harrison, he would have known immediately. I even heard that one radio guy Gargano from Philly say that the victim said Marvin Harrison was not the shooter. The reports keep coming out that the bul ...(more)
