A witness has come forward with more details surrounding the tragic death of former Saints, Will Smith.
Alex Richerand, who lives right where the murder took place, says he heard what sounded like a car accident and proceeded to walk out of his home. He saw two men arguing and one running around frantically without a shirt. He said he tried to run in to get his phone so he record the incident, but right as he started recording, gun shots rang out and he ran back inside his home. After a few minutes passed, he said he dialed 911 and came back outside to see Smith’s wife on the ground with two gunshots in her leg. He said by that time police were on the scene so he didn’t get too involved, but Smith’s wife seemed like she was in a lot of pain. Alex said he didn’t know someone had died from the incident be witnessed and only knew it was Will Smith after his friends texted him the next day.
Very sad situation. A man was taken away from his family in what seems like an altercation that could have been avoided.
