Lawyer: Smith held no gun when shot in the back repeatedly
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — An enraged Hummer driver chased down former Saints defensive end Will Smith's Mercedes, deliberately rammed the SUV from behind, angrily confronted him in the street and then shot him eight times, yelling over his dying body as his wounded wife tried to crawl away, the Smith family's lawyer said Wednesday.
Racquel Smith wanted everyone to know that her husband was "her Superman" and that he died trying to protect her, attorney Peter Thomson said. But Smith never pulled out his own handgun, which remained loaded but unused in a compartment inside his Mercedes, he said.
