Report: Police probe Harrison in Philadelphia shooting
ESPN.com news services

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Marvin Harrison is under investigation in his hometown of Philadelphia in a shooting that took place late Tuesday afternoon, a source close to the investigation told Anthony Gargano of Philadelphia's WIP Radio.

The shooting reportedly occurred outside a North Philadelphia bar owned by Harrison.

Harrison has yet to be arrested or charged with the crime.

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.

Calls from ESPN to reach Harrison, his agent and the Colts for comment had not been returned.

THUG.

[Flight3107]

T.O. would never shoot anyone

[monosylab1k]

Oh the irony. All the years of people bashing TO and Randy Moss, citing Marvin Harrison as the "classy" receiver, the anti-Moss, the shining beacon of holiness.

And now this. Sweet justice.

[monosylab1k]

Tony Dunga aka "God's Coach".......the man sent by Jesus to set the righteous holy example for Belichick & other lowlife coaching cretins.......is harboring a THUG on his team. Excellent :smokin

[stretch]

thats incredibly unusual and unexpected. The Marvin Harrison part that is... not the stupid bashing by Mono.

[Thunder Dan]

Braylon Edwards would never shoot anyone

[bostonguy]

Wow. Thats a serious shocker seeing Marvin do that. This doesnt help the matters of Harrisons decline due to age and recent injury in the NFL.

[FlavoredIcecream]

Moss>Harrison. :elephant

[/mono]

[monosylab1k]

Moss>Harrison. :elephant

[/mono]

:lol we already knew that part.

now we know that Harrison's a bigger thug than Moss.

[stretch]

Braylon Edwards would never shoot anyone

I would never shoot anyone

[degenerate_gambler]

This is a shocker...I don't really know anything about Marvin Harrison except basically what I see on tv via games, interviews, etc...

We think we know these guys as fans...but we don't really know anything about them at all, other than what we see on tv.

[Thunder Dan]

I would never shoot anyone

I wouldn't now, but if I were a Wide Receiver in the NFL I probably would

I'll wait until there's something more concrete, but still :depressed

What the hell is up with my city's sports figures? :(

I cheat on my taxes and this is what karma does to me?

i just hope the victim isn't reggie wayne.

Marvin Harrison still has one thing Moss and TO don't. A ring. Win Super Bowls and then talk about shooting people.

That doesn't make any sense since fans can't win rings. Moss and TO didn't say anything....fans did.


I guess I can't say anything though....I haven't won a ring. ;)

This is true:rollin

[dbreiden83080]

Oh my GOD, i just heard the tail end of this story on ESPN earlier tonight but reading this now with all the details he is dead in the water. It was a special type of gun, they caught him in a lie, finding the gun with bullets missing and they match those at the scene of the crime. Yeah he is going to prison alright, what a shocker. There goes Manning's all time great receiver, i wonder if this will effect his HOF status at all?? Probably not but his playing days are likely over.

[J.T.]

God damn am I glad Reggie Wayne turned into Superman and the Colts drafted Gonzalez last year.

[Biggems]

lets not rush to judgement guys....not until we know the whole story.

did anyone hear about Herschel's book? who knew he was a schizo and had psychotic episodes that caused him to almost kill his wife and himself on numerous occasions.

[Vinnie_Johnson]

Wait until all the facts come out but Damn looks pretty bad for him. I never would have though he owned a Bar and 25 guns.

***updated***

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- 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."

Colts team president Bill Polian said in a statement the team would withhold comment until it got more information.

NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said the league is aware of the report and is looking into it.

A source told WIP that ballistic tests showed the shots were fired from a custom-made Belgian weapon, and police determined Harrison owns that kind of gun.

Police went to a Philadelphia car wash about a half-mile away that is owned by Harrison and questioned him about the gun, the station said. Harrison acknowledged owning such a weapon, but told officials it never left his suburban Philadelphia home, the radio station reported.

The source told the station a gun was discovered in a bucket at the car wash, and tests showed it had fired bullets that matched those at the scene.

Harrison has played his entire 12-season career with the Colts and is the franchise's record-holder in every major receiving category -- receptions (1,042), yards (13,944), touchdowns (123) and 100-yard games (59). The 35-year-old is one of only four players in league history to top 1,000 receptions.

But after eight consecutive Pro Bowl appearances, last season was the most frustrating of Harrison's career.

He injured his left knee against Denver on Sept. 30, finished with 20 receptions for 247 yards and one TD and missed all but five games.

Team president Bill Polian said in February that Harrison was recovering from offseason arthroscopic surgery on his right knee and had been rehabilitating the inflamed capsule in his left knee. He was not expected to be completely healthy for the start of the Colts training camp July 24.

The typically quiet Harrison has a reputation for being humble on and off the field.

But he's still one of the Colts' most visible players -- and their longest tenured veteran. Harrison, along with Peyton Manning and Edgerrin James, were nicknamed Indy's triplets in the late 1990s. He was a first-round draft pick in 1996 out of Syracuse and wound up the best receiver in a class that included Keyshawn Johnson and Eric Moulds.

Off the field, Harrison was sued following the 2005 Pro Bowl when three boys accused him of attacking them when they tried to get his autograph. The suit alleged Harrison "violently and physically attacked" the minors, including placing a "potentially deadly choke hold" on one of the boys, but it was later dismissed.

ohh the irony...

He's working on a way to blame the Patriots for this.

[JackArse]

i don't know how they can say he's not a suspect.

special gun that he admits to owning, the bullet casings match the guns ballistics. he says it's been at home, yet, they find it at the car wash he owns, in a bucket, while he's there.
he walked out after the guy when he left.. and the shots were fired THEN.

i guess it only counts if a dog were involved.

the police are putting Harrison through a series of combine like tests. If he does well and can contribute to the team this year they may sweep this under the rug, if he does poorly he goes to jail.

Because one of Marv's home boys couldn't have snatched the gun and started poppin' off shells?

Or if he did, and he shot back rather than shot first, self defense baby.

Either way Marv's pimp rating has just gone up like 300%.

[Harry Callahan]

"Mr. Harrison,
Mr. Goodell will see you now."

Wait until all the facts come out but Damn looks pretty bad for him. I never would have though he owned a Bar and 25 guns.

he is basically Ray Curruth with one of these w/o the glasses

[SpursFanFirst]

I just got to work and heard another part of the story. I haven't seen this info anywhere else, so I thought I'd share...

Apparently, this guy (victim) had been showing up at the bar for a while now constantly harrassing Harrison, and it finally reached a boiling point the day of the shooting.
He (victim) showed up at the bar and started in again. A physical fight between Harrison and victim broke out, and the victim soon left.
He then came back a while later, and that's when the shot(s?) were fired.

Has anyone else heard this?

Certainly, I'm not condoning this or making excuses, but I could see how it could escalate to this point.
I guess we'll have to wait and see how this ends.

[samikeyp]

If you are so much of a pussy that you have to resort to using a gun to settle a dispute, you deserve to go to jail.

If it was Harrison, lock his ass up. If it was one of Harrison's boys then leave Marvin alone. It sounds like Marvin is cooperating though so that is good. I have always been a fan of his so I hope he didn't pull the trigger.

[Eli Manning]

Marvin, come play in New York we have a pretty low crime rate. You won't even need your guns here.

[Evan]

i don't know how they can say he's not a suspect.


His lawyer is probably all over this and the police department has probably been advised by the mayer/DA to be extremely cautious what they say to the public.

[MannyIsGod]

Crazy shit.

[Obstructed_View]

Hey, something happens that finally makes Randy Moss look like less of a thug. When you are fat, just hang around people fatter than you are.

Randy Moss has still been arrested more times and has spent more time in jail, but that don't matta.

[TheSanityAnnex]

Randy Moss has still been arrested more times and has spent more time in jail, But Randy Moss once helped a kid.

Marvin Harrison is a complete dumbass, though. What a way to completely piss away his reputation and his career in one fell swoop.

[Vinnie_Johnson]

He is just stupid why does he even own a Bar in that hood in Philly? Then he buys a chop shop in the same ghetto what a dumb Fuck.

[Obstructed_View]

He is just stupid why does he even get into a fight in a bar? Then he shoots at the guy's car with his kid in it instead of calling the police what a dumb Fuck.

tyr again

[Obstructed_View]

Oh the irony. All the years of people bashing TO and Randy Moss, citing Marvin Harrison as the "classy" receiver, the anti-Moss, the shining beacon of holiness.

And now this. Sweet justice.

The irony is that you would attempt to lump TO in with Moss, when TO has never been arrested, and is merely a loudmouth and a jackass, while condemning unnamed others for unfair comparisons. :lol

[SpursFan24445]

It's been tough to follow this story exactly because there have been so many conflicting reports.

[dirk4mvp]

Well, he didn't shoot anybody. And he's still better than TO and Moss :lol

[stretch]

And he's still better than TO and Moss :lol

No he isn't.

[dirk4mvp]

No he isn't.


yeah, he kinda is.


I know you are a Raider's fan, but the other people on this board who are 90% cowboy fans are going to disagree too.

Fair or not, TO & Moss have been the posterboys of "everything that's wrong with the NFL" and comparisons are always made to the classy, hardworking, "everything right with the NFL" Marvin Harrison.

They media has been doing this for years. It has nothing to do with TO's nonexistent arrest history, or Moss' outdated one. Whether you like it or not, Moss and TO are lumped together as malcontents and will forever be lumped together. Are you really this fucking stupid?

[monosylab1k]

yeah, he kinda is.

The only people on earth who actually think Marvin Harrison is a better player than Randy Moss or Terrell Owens are Colts fans.

or people with functional brains.

yeah, he kinda is.

explain.

[stretch]

or people with functional brains.

actually I haven't known a single non-colts fan these days who says Harrison is better than Moss or TO. actually i know quite a few Colts fans that say Moss and TO is superior. I know quite a few that cannot stand him because he never does shit in the playoffs.

[DBryant88]

Harriosn is nearing the end of his career, but wayne is mearlt beginng to prospere as on of the NFL's best. He is vary umderated though and you never see him the news because he lets his play do his taking

[dirk4mvp]

explain.


career? yes

now? no

Although..... Moss>Wayne>=TO

[stretch]

now? no

Although..... Moss>Wayne>=TO

TO > Wayne

[dirk4mvp]

TO > Wayne


maybe not

[Obstructed_View]

Fair or not, TO & Moss have been the posterboys of "everything that's wrong with the NFL" and comparisons are always made to the classy, hardworking, "everything right with the NFL" Marvin Harrison.

And this is the first time Harrison has ever been in trouble that I know of, so the comparisons were completely fair. TO and Moss HAVE been examples of what's wrong with pro athletes and the NFL. That said, TO hasn't served any time in jail, so even bringing him into the conversation is your attempt to ass kiss the Cowboys fans in order to get them on your side in your ridiculous attempt to somehow justify the stupid shit that Randy Moss has done in his career.



They media has been doing this for years. It has nothing to do with TO's nonexistent arrest history, or Moss' outdated one. Whether you like it or not, Moss and TO are lumped together as malcontents and will forever be lumped together. Are you really this fucking stupid?
I might be if I weren't able to see through what you're doing. Before this story broke, you were attempting to say that Moss wasn't so bad because look at what TO does. That you seemingly aren't smart enough to look at someone that plays a different position than wide receiver is comical.
