Very sad.
Killer driving a hummer. Not to stereotype, but I have not known a single person who drove a hummer that wasn't a total jerkoff, displaying ultra aggressive, superficial attitudes. Very popular car in this area (Northern California) during the housing boom when money was being made hand over fist. Wasn't surprised at all when I saw that.
Man, that just sucks. Young man with a young family gone in the blink of an eye over a fender bender.

"Dubbed an incident of road rage at first, the New Orleans Advocate points out that Hayes sued the City of New Orleans in 2005 after police officers killed his father. Shortly before the automobile accident that resulted in Hayes shooting Smith and his wife, Smith and former Saints teammate Pierre Thomas had eaten dinner with Billy Ceravolo, one of the officers who shot Anthony Hayes and who was personally sued by Cardell Hayes.
Per the Advocate, Ceravolo described Smith and Thomas as personal friends. However, Ceravolo was not at the scene of the shooting. Ceravolo also claimed he wasn’t aware that Cardell Hayes had named Ceravolo in the lawsuit, which was settled in 2011 for what Hayes’ lawyer called a “large” amount of money."
REALLY weird coincidence or more than meets the eye?
Either way...small world
