The gun was then found in a bucket at that car wash. Ballistics showed the gun was recently fired 7 times. So not only did Marvin Harrison LIE, he also shot a gun at people.

It appears @ this point, that your alligations derive from an ERRONEOUS source~!!Dude, this is what the police are saying. Police reportedly went to a Philadelphia car wash owned by Harrison and questioned him about the gun. According to AP reports, Harrison acknowledged owning such a weapon, but told officials it never left his suburban Philadelphia home. Shortly after this LIE the weapon was found at his car wash in a bucket.

Harrison may or may have not shot the weapon. Regardless, the weapon was fired. Ballistics has confirmed this mind you Jagsbch. Why would he lie about the whereabouts of the gun?

Here's an article that was posted on Philly.com today.  There was no mention of where the gun was found and I read an article that's contrary to the one about the bucket.  Personally, I'm waiting since there are many unanswered questions but this article does say he's under investigation:

Marvin Harrison's life story was once the kind of tale fathers whisper to their sons at bedtime - a local guy who worked hard and achieved impossible dreams.

Harrison started turning heads almost 20 years ago as a two-sport wonder at Roman Catholic High School.

The skinny kid from North Philly went on to Syracuse University, where he starred as a wide receiver alongside future Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb.

Harrison has since found fame and fortune in the NFL, where he breaks receiving records seemingly at will. He even won a Super Bowl with the Indianapolis Colts in 2007. But now those close to Harrison are wondering if the quiet, widely respected star has fumbled away his Hall of Fame-caliber career with an alleged senseless act of street violence.

Philadelphia police acknowledged yesterday that Harrison, 35, is under investigation for allegedly being involved in a shooting earlier this week in his old North Philadelphia neighborhood.

The shooting occurred about 5 p.m. Tuesday up the block from a garage and car detail shop that Harrison owns at 25th and Thompson streets, police said.

Six shots were fired in all during the incident. An unidentified 32-year-old man - who had just been involved in a fistfight with Harrison - took a bullet to the hand. A 2-year-old boy suffered a cut under his eye from shards of glass that showered the area when an errant bullet exploded through a car windshield, police said.

From there, the story gets complicated.

The gunshot victim was dropped off at Lankenau Hospital in Wynnewood. Initially, the man told investigators that he had been wounded while driving on 61st Street in West Philly, police sources said.

Eventually, though, he acknowledged that he had been shot in North Philly. The man refused, however, to identify the person who wounded him.

Investigators later learned that the gunshot victim had been kicked out of Harrison's bar, Playmakers, on 28th Street near Cambridge, two weeks earlier, and had bickered with Harrison ever since, sources said.

On Wednesday, detectives visited Harrison's garage and detail shop, which he purchased in 2006 for $200,000, according to tax records.

Sources said that Harrison had a Belgian firearm, an FN5.7, in his garage. Harrison handed the high-powered weapon - which fires armor-piercing rounds - over to investigators.

He then spent about four hours at Central Detectives, accompanied by his attorney, Jerome Brown.

Neither Brown nor Harrison's agent, Tom Condon, could be reached for comment last night.

During a lengthy interview, Harrison acknowledged owning the gun and being involved in a fistfight on Tuesday, but said he had nothing to do with the shooting, sources told the Daily News.

Investigators informed him that ballistics tests confirmed that five of the six shell casings found at the shooting scene came from his gun, the sources said.

Last night, detectives were searching for another man who contacted them and claimed that he had been shot by Harrison, although that report remains unconfirmed, sources said.

Harrison, meanwhile, has not been charged with any wrong-doing.

"No one has actually come in here and said that he shot them, and we don't have any witnesses," one investigator noted.

Correction; no mention of where the gun was found because he handed it over.  Brain is quicker than the fingers.

no motive....no charges filed....  sounds to me like he's innocent, at least for now! we'll soon see if he's made the biggest mistake of his life and blown a golden opportunity.

Some are saying Marvin's percieved persona is a mask to maintain his image. Behind it is a norh Philly street tough defending his neighborhood cred. Early reports don't look good for innocence in this altercation.It also makes possible suspects for any local who owns a rare 50  cal. Belgian handgun.

Regardless of charges and allegations, WTF is Harrison doing with a 55 cal hand gun??? That is a serious weapon, and don't tell me its for self-defense because a man that rich could practically hire the secret service if he wanted to.

Again it is coming to light, that ESPN, who broke the story, apparantly had an erroneous source. People need to acknowledge:

There is more than one story circulating around the wire.

Per PFT.  Take it for what it's worth considering it's from E S P N:  

ESPN’s Sal Paolantonio is reporting that Philadelphia District Attorney Lynne Abraham will be taking over the investigation of the shooting outside a North Philly bar owned by Colts receiver
