New Orleans Saints defensive end Will Smith is killed after he and his wife were shot in a 'road rage' attack | Daily Mail Online


(I am sorry if you if did not actually want anyone to reply back to you.)


They were celebrating just being out, fun, French Qtr. Fest. That is what I got from the article. See the photos in the link. Smith also had just tweeted a picture of him and his wife saying they were having a great time at the FrenchQ.Fest.

I assume Will met up the these friends of his since it a picture just about an hour bfore.

last night i think i was numb to the news. by the time i finished reading all the post i am sad and pi$$ed off. the pic of him and PT hanging out really hit me hard.

Mitch Landrieu needs to dragged out his office and beaten till he gets his priorities straight.

Ok I am going non PC here. Where is black lives matters? they are to afraid to confront this issue. So it is up to the people and the fans raise an uproar over the murder rate. when is enough enough?

ALL lives matter. What a tragic thing for that family.

We have a mental health issue on this planet, and until our leaders step up and openly acknowledge that nothing changes and things get worse.

R.I.P Will.

That wasnt non PC - that was the truth. Black Lives Matters is nothing but a hollow slogan. It will only be sincerely meaningful when those involved in the organization preach to all races, and not just to those in the white community.

God what a terrible and senseless tragedy.. not what I was expecting to wake up to today. R.I.P Will.. no doubt you're resting comfortably in the loving arms of our Heavenly Father right now. I hope that the first group to greet you after you emerge from that embrace is all the who dat's who passed on before you helped bring us a Super Bowl title. What a thrill it'll be for them to finally get to meet a Champion. My prayers go out to his family, most especially his wife and kids. May God grant them the peace that surpasses understanding and give them healing and strength physically, mentally and emotionally. I can't imagine what this must feel like for them and I hope I never get to... I'm glad they got the thug who did this in custody. May God have mercy on him, and may the court have none.

I have no idea how to embed a tweet, but I saw that Tyrann Mathieu posted that he knows the shooter. His words were "he was always a hating ass coward, didn't think he'd grow up to be a killer though. May you get what you deserve coward."

For those misinformed, mistaken gun-control idiotic liberty-abandonment liberals, be informed of the following:

Will Smith's alledged shooter's (Cardell Hayes) father (Anthony Hayes) was fatally shot by NOPD in 2006 while charging Lt. William Ceravolo with a knife; Ceravolo, now in private security had just been celebrating with Will Smith, Pierre Thomas and family; coincidentally, attorneys representing the Hayes family were able to secure a settlement from the City of New Orleans (wow, imagine the surprise) who had been seeking four million dollars (Cardale was rolling in a Hummer2 that hit the Smith car)...

Source(s): New Orleans reaches settlement over police shooting | NOLA.com


So those of you thinking 'road rage' and 'gun control' can stow it away as this 'may' have been premeditated...

Most shootings in New Orleans are locals on locals anyways as most of the Landreiu-sheltered thugs know that people from the outer-lying parishes (counties) are usually carrying while visiting or conducting business in the city and know not to **** 'with someone from the bayou parishes' so you can abort hijacking this story as another opportunity to assault second amendment rights that our Founding Fathers sought fit in their wisdom to weave into our Constitution...

Re: Will Smith of the New Orleans Saints shot to death in car, wife wounded



That mofos is 6ft 6


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 first pepper-sprayed, then 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.

More On This Topic

Officials claimed Anthony Hayes threatened Ceravolo with his knife after the officer repeatedly told him to put it down.
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

Don't know if this ahs been posted. Ahhhh, social media where the story gets to the bottom before the police and media.

Seems to me. Premeditated murder. Revenge killing.

Keep it together, New Orleans.

Guys, its all gonna start now. Just like after the Storm.
All kinds of people saying all kinds of things.
Lets dont do it this time.
Lets dont turn on each other.
Lets dont try to make this into some sort of piece of the bigger picture.
Im sure a certain Other Site is melting down right now.
Lets dont do it.
Lets take this time to mourn a man, a Saint, and his family.
Let everyone else politicize.
And lets see what we can do, just as people, one on one, to preserve
the great beauty of New Orleans, and so many good people.
You can live in Acadiana, Shreveport, MS, TX, or the world, but our heart
is in New Orleans.
You are the Good People of New Orleans.
Lets keep it beautiful.
