    Police investigate shooting, Pacman Jones involvement

    The Associated Press - ATLANTA

    Police were seeking Tennessee Titans cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones _ now on suspension following a melee and shooting at a Las Vegas strip club _ for questioning about a shooting early Monday morning involving members of his entourage after a fight at an Atlanta strip club.

    Jones, his entourage and three other people got into a fight, apparently over a woman, at a club in DeKalb County around 4 a.m., officer Ariel Toledo said.

    After everyone involved left the club _ the three people in one car, and Jones and his entourage in three other cars _ someone in Jones' entourage shot at the car, and the others returned fire, Toledo said.

    Toledo said Jones was not present when the shots were fired.

    "We believe he knows some of his entourage who were involved in the shooting," Toledo said. "On himself, we do not have any charges on him. He wasn't there when the shooting occurred."

    One person who was outside the vehicles and not involved in the dispute was injured by debris in the shooting and was treated by emergency medical technicians, Toledo said.

    Manny Arora, Jones' attorney, said he was trying to find out what had happened from the police, but he understood Jones was sought only as a witness to the incident.

    Authorities have also been investigating what role Jones, a native of College Park, Ga., had in a February shooting outside a Las Vegas club that left a bar employee paralyzed and two other people wounded.

    Attorney Robert Langford said no evidence tied Jones to the shooting, but an aide to Clark County District Attorney David Roger said it could take several days to decide if there is enough information to file charges against Jones and two friends.

    The Las Vegas allegations were among a series of arrests and encounters with police that led NFL commissioner Roger Goodell to suspend Jones for one season.

    Jones agreed last week not to appeal the suspension. The 23-year-old player could be reinstated after 10 games for good behavior if he adheres to conditions set by Goodell and is not arrested again. Missing the entire season would cost him his salary of nearly $1.3 million.

    You'd think that VY's otherworldly leadership skills would turn this guy's life around.

    No kidding. Both this and Nifong getting disbarred today show that some people actually get what they deserve.

    actually i think good behaviour could have got his sentence reduced and he could play part of the second half.

    Good things never happen at this time of night. And generally, I would say that good things never happen after midnight.
