R.I.P.: Former Super Bowl Winner Will Smith Shot To Death In New Orleans After Road Rage Incident!
A man was arrested Sunday in the shooting death of former New Orleans Saints defensive end Will Smith, who helped the team win Super Bowl XLIV, its only championship.
Smith was shot after he was involved in a traffic collision with a Hummer H2 in New Orleans's Lower Garden District on Saturday night, police said. The driver of the Hummer and Smith "exchanged words at which time the driver of the Hummer produced a handgun" and shot Smith "multiple times," police said.
Smith's wife was also shot twice and transported to a local hospital.
Cardell Hayes, 28, was arrested after the shooting and charged with second-degree murder, New Orleans police said. Police said a gun was recovered from the scene.
Smith was drafted by the Saints in 2004 and spent all nine of his seasons with the team. He last played in 2012.
