Charles Grant Stabbed in the Neck During a Nightclub Fight - FanHouse - AOL Sports Blog

Whether or not he was caught in the middle of a bad situation or one of its causes remains to be seen, but this is a terrible event with terrible timing for the NFL, who doesn't need another incident -- especially one involving a late-night altercation -- to mar its biggest game (surprisingly, the league's own house network picked up the sad story while ESPN has yet to even run it on its crawl). Either way, a woman and her unborn child have lost their lives and a man might be seriously injured. Makes Spygate seem rather trivial.

Football IS trival QBrees. We know that. But nobody said we were sane. We're Saints fans, for petes sake. We're about as far away from sane as you can get.

Just caught a news story of Charles Grant getting stabbed outside of a Georgia night club when a fight spilled over into the streets. He was treated and released from a local hospital, but there was fallout during the incident: pregnant woman was shot and killed...probably not his fault but he is caught up in the mix. I'll keep digging and see what else I can find.

I'm sure will be learning a lot more in the days to come. Feel very sorry for the women who passed away and her baby.

New Orleans defensive end Charles Grant was stabbed in the neck, and a pregnant woman was shot and killed early Sunday in an altercation at a nightclub in southwest Georgia. Grant was assaulted and had an injury to his neck, according to a statement released by Capt. Will Caudill of the Early County Sheriff's Office. Grant was transported to Early Memorial Hospital, where he was treated and later released. Early County Sheriff's deputies responded to reports of a fight around 1 a.m. Sunday at a nightclub in Blakely, which is about 190 miles southwest of Atlanta.

"We're aware of the situation and are gathering information," New Orleans Saints spokesman Greg Bensel said. "Until we complete the process, we will have no further comment."

In the incident, 23-year-old Korynda Reed of Blakely was shot, police said. She was transported to Southeast Alabama Medical Center in Dothan, Ala., where she died. Early County Sheriff Jimmie R. Murkerson said Reed was pregnant.

No arrests have been made, and the case remains under investigation.

A star at the University of Georgia, Grant was drafted by the Saints in the first round of the 2002 NFL draft.

Grant, a native of Colquitt, Ga., who now lives in Kenner, La., had 2 1/2 sacks in 2007 while starting 14 games for the Saints. During his six-year career, Grant has 38 1/2 sacks.

WHY WHY WHY?????
Espn outside the lines was all about players being victims of attacks yesterday. I saw no mention of Grant during the SB, did I miss it? The NFL was trying to keep the story quiet until after the casual fan was done with the S.B. Bad job by the NFL I guess they were too busy destroying the spygate tapes.
