Former Saints DE Will Smith shot and killed
Apparent road rage
Police say Will Smith’s death appears to be a case of road rage Posted by Michael David Smith on April 10, 2016, 6:24 AM EDT Former Saints defensive end Will Smith was shot and killed on Saturday night in what police say appears to be a road rage incident. “It appears that it could possibly have been road rage,” New Orleans Police Officer Juan D. Barnes Sr. said. Smith was driving and his wife was in the passenger seat when their car was hit by a Hummer, causing Smith’s car to hit a third vehicle. “The male victim and the driver of the Hummer exchanged words at which time the driver of the Hummer produced a handgun and shot the male victim multiple times and his 34-year-old wife twice in the right leg,” police said in a statement. The 30-year-old Hummer driver is in police custody. Smith’s wife was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment for her leg injuries. They have two sons and a daughter. |

By all accounts Smith was a good guy and outspoken against gun violence in NO.

What an ignorant piece of shit RIP, Will |

That is a bummer. You aren't going to do much hustling in jail though.

Very sad indeed. And by all accounts, Will Smith was a good husband, father and teammate. Senseless violence to lose your mind about a traffic incident.
I had a gun pulled on me here during a road rage incident. The other driver started it but I sure didn't help the situation by flipping them the bird and honking back. It was a woman who pulled a gun on my too. Never again will I get so infuriated by other's actions on the road. Not worth it. |

You were screaming and yelling and flipping off a woman and she pulled a gun?

Cardell Hayes, suspected of killing former Saints player Will Smith, sued city of New Orleans after police killed dad in 2005
Cardell Hayes, the suspect in former Saints Pro Bowler Will Smith's fatal shooting late Saturday, filed a high-profile lawsuit against the city of New Orleans after police officers killed his father in a December 2005 incident, his ex-attorney confirmed Sunday. One of the defendants mentioned in that lawsuit had dined with Smith shortly before the former football pro was killed. Hayes' father, Anthony, was mentally unstable and had gotten into an argument with an employee at a St. Charles Avenue pharmacy while holding a pocket knife when officers shot and killed him, officials said. Hayes, now 28, sued for damages, alleging that officers should have used non-lethal force -- such as a stun gun -- to subdue his father, but none of the cops had such a tool. The litigation was settled in 2011 for an undisclosed amount of money that could be described as "large," said attorney Ike Spears, who represented Hayes in that matter but is not involved in the Smith case. One of the defendants named in the lawsuit Hayes filed against the city was Billy Ceravolo, who retired from the New Orleans Police Department as a captain in 2013 after 25 years on the force. The lawsuit accused Ceravolo of being among several officers to fatally shoot Anthony Hayes. Ceravolo on Sunday said he was eating dinner with Smith and former Saints running back Pierre Thomas at a restaurant in the Lower Garden District shortly before authorities said Smith was rear-ended by Cardell Hayes, 28, on a nearby street. Police allege that Hayes fatally shot Smith and wounded his wife, Racquel, during an argument that erupted after the collision. Ceravolo, who called Smith and Thomas personal friends, said he was not at the scene of the shooting when it occurred and was not aware that Hayes had named him in his federal lawsuit. Police detained Hayes on Saturday night and booked him with second-degree murder on Sunday morning after questioning him. Aside from his wife, Smith's survivors include three young children. Check back with The New Orleans Advocate for more details on Smith's fatal shooting later. http://www.theneworleansadvocate.com...leans-after-po |

If the government would have taken control of our guns, this wouldn't have happened.

She was doing most of it and honked and rode my ass to start the whole thing for a reason I really don't know. I flipped her the bird out the window and honked. Not sure where you got the yelling part, I did none of that. Pulled up to the next light and as soon as I looked over, she grabbed a gun from under the seat and pointed it right at me.
