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.

Well, since no one was seriously hurt, and the man with the bullet in the hand can probably sue Harrison...

I don't feel bad at all about being happy about this  :)

Good words to live by.   :)

Also don't use the custom made, Austrian, monogrammed bullets.

Am I giving Harrison too much credit in assuming by his gun choice that this was not premeditated?
Yup

it doesnt look good at all for Harrison.

And for those who are saying it is not something you would expect from him, that should just show how much the media portraying him as a 'good' guy plays a role.

Three years ago, Harrison was sued for “violently and physically attack[ing]” three boys who were seeking his autograph a day before the Pro Bowl in Hawaii.

Harrison allegedly put one of the boys in a choke hold.

There were never any further reports about the lawsuit, which suggests to us that it was quietly settled for a confidential payment.

Yet another example of proof that no fan has any clue in reality the true character of these guys. He has been made out to be a model citizen his entire career and then is involved in this. Be careful who you choose as your role models!

YET ANOTHER HARRISON INCIDENT
Posted by Mike Florio on May 2, 2008, 5:41 p.m.
Maybe we haven’t been paying close enough attention to Marvin Harrison over the years.

Because this week’s shooting potentially involving Harrison wasn’t his first incident.  Or his second.

It’s his third.

Granted, the five-year-old incident involving Harrison is a far cry from a shooting.  But it’s further evidence that maybe Marvin isn’t the great guy that we’ve been led to believe he is.

In 2003, Harrison allegedly knocked a Jets’ ball boy to the ground because Jets punter Matt Turk was kicking balls in the direction of Harrison and quarterback Peyton Manning prior to a game.

Jets radio analyst Marty Lyons reported at the time that Harrison also put his hands on the boy’s neck before the two were separated.

The Jets confirmed that there was an incident, and the league said it was aware of it.  But that was the end of it.

So lets see, he put a kid in a headlock who asked for his autograph.  He knocked a jets ball boy (kid) down and put his hands around the kids neck.

I guess with those in mind, we should be glad he didnt shoot a kid.
