State police returned to the home of New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez on Wednesday, two days after a body was found about a mile away.
As the Massachusetts State police continue to investigate Aaron Hernandez's connection to a homicide in North Attleboro, Mass., a Connecticut man has filed a lawsuit in the state of Florida alleging that the New England Patriots tight end shot him in the face following an argument in mid-February.
Initially reported by TMZ.com , Alexander S. Bradley, an acquaintance of Hernandez, filed a lawsuit in South Florida district court on June 13 alleging that, following an argument at a Miami strip club, a gun ? possessed illegally by Hernandez ? was pointed at Bradley and discharged while the two men were driving from Miami to Palm Beach, Fla.
According to the complaint, a copy of which was posted here by Greg Bedard of Sports Illustrated, Bradley suffered bodily injury, including the loss of his right eye. The suit alleges that Bradley has begun what will be a series of reconstructive surgeries to his face and that he has sustained additional injuries caused by this incident that "will require extensive medical care and treatment for the rest of his life".
The lawsuit was withdrawn on Monday, June 17, but Mike Garafolo of the USA Today reports that Bradley's counsel claims there was a paperwork error . David Jaroslawicz, co-counsel for Bradley, told Garafolo that the suit will be refiled on Wednesday.
COMMENTARY | In 2008, the Chicago Bears came up one win short of making the playoffs. That offseason, the team sent two first-round picks, a third- and a fifth-round pick and starting QB Kyle Orton to Denver in exchange for Jay Cutler. With the honeymoon phase now over and entering his fifth season in the Windy City, the time for Cutler to take Chicago to the next level is well past due.
