Zuck Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 FoxNews is reporting that Sean Taylor is accused of firing a gun a t a house of people he thought stole his all terrain vehicle and is going to turn himself in this morning. Police seek Taylor for questioning in assault Story Tools: Print Email Associated Press Posted: 12 hours ago MIAMI (AP) - Miami-Dade County police were looking Friday for Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor, who they describe as a "person of interest" in an assault case. "We need to speak to him, we don't know if he's a victim, witness or suspect," said police spokesman Mary Walters. A bad off-season for Sean Taylor appears to have gotten a lot worse. ( / Getty Images) The assault happened Wednesday night and shots were fired, Walters said. No one was injured. Walters said she didn't have further details and police were still investigating. Citing sources within the Miami-Dade Police Department, Fox Sports Radio's Jorge Sedano reported that Taylor fired shots at the home of people he believed had stolen an all-terrain vehicle of his. Sedano also reported that Taylor will be charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and will turn himself in to Miami authorities Saturday morning. Sedano made the report on Fox Sports Radio's "Fox GameTime Live" with Craig Shemon and James Washington. Taylor's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, declined comment Friday. Taylor and the Redskins didn't immediately return phone messages seeking comment. Taylor, who wants a new contract, has been working out in Miami despite pleas from coach Joe Gibbs to join the team in voluntary workouts at their home base in suburban Washington. He signed a seven-year, $18 million deal as the No. 5 overall draft pick in the 2004 draft. The former Miami Hurricanes standout has had a tempestuous start to his NFL career. He has fired two agents, was fined for skipping one day of the NFL's mandatory rookie symposium and was accused of spitting on a player during a game at Cincinnati, although he was not punished because the league said there was no video evidence. He was also charged with drunken driving in October, when he was pulled over at 2:45 a.m. after attending a birthday party for receiver Rod Gardner. Those charges were dismissed in January.

Mickalino Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/news/local/11812118.htm Posted on Sat, Jun. 04, 2005 MIAMI-DADE COUNTY Ex-UM star 'of interest' in South Dade shootings Police want to question Washington Redskin and former UM All-American Sean Taylor about two South Dade shootings in which no one was injured. BY CHARLES RABIN crabin@herald.com Miami-Dade police have been looking for Washington Redskins safety and former University of Miami All-American Sean Taylor since Wednesday in connection with a pair of South Dade shootings in which no one was injured. Police released few details and declined to say whether Taylor, 22, was considered a suspect, a victim or a witness to Wednesday's gunfire, which involved a stolen vehicle at one site and retaliatory shots at another vehicle at another. Saying the shootings are part of an open investigation, police refused to pinpoint where the shootings took place -- or to name anyone they were interested in questioning in addition to Taylor. ''He is a person of interest that we need to talk to,'' said Miami-Dade police spokeswoman Nelda Fonticiella. Finding Taylor, she said, has been a ``little more difficult than they planned.'' Many people have had a hard time finding Taylor since the NFL season concluded in January. He was a no-show for a Redskins spring mini-camp in April at which coach Joe Gibbs said Taylor had not returned any of his calls. Taylor's father, Florida City Police Chief Pedro W. Taylor, wouldn't comment on his son's whereabouts Friday, referring media to his son's mother. Taylor's mom, Donna Junor, 43, said she hadn't seen her son since Tuesday evening when she found him at home asleep. ''I haven't heard from him and I haven't been able to contact him,'' said Junor. Junor said her son spent the entire spring with her in Homestead, never discussing football. Taylor is the second oldest of her four children. In late April The Herald reported that Taylor was boycotting the Redskins' offseason workout program because he needed time away from football after a difficult rookie season. Taylor and another former UM standout, wide receiver Santana Moss, were the Redskins' only unexcused absentees from that mini-camp. Taylor, a second-year player who had a fine rookie year despite causing migraines for the team off the field, said he wants to renegotiate the seven-year, $18 million contract he inked with the Redskins. During his rookie year, the fifth overall pick in the 2004 draft fired two agents, was fined for skipping a day at the NFL's rookie symposium, and was benched for a game after being arrested on a charge of drunken driving. In January that charge was dismissed, but he was still convicted of refusing to take a blood alcohol test. Calls to Taylor's agent, Drew Rosenhaus -- an outspoken regular contributor to local television sports broadcasts who has a host of South Florida and former UM clients, and who appears regularly on ESPN -- were not returned by early Friday night. Taylor left UM after a stellar 2003 season in which he earned All-American honors. He played high school football locally for the Gulliver Raiders, leading them to the Class 2A state title in 2000. He has remained active in the community. In September, after the Palmetto Bay Broncos Warner Division II Midget football team won its third national title in a row, Taylor -- a former Pop Warner star himself -- shelled out $17,000 to buy the kids championship rings. Junor, who says she's a homemaker, expressed relief when told that police said no one was injured in Wednesday's shootings. ''I've been hearing rumors,'' she said. ``One detective called and said to give him some numbers. He said he just wanted to question Sean. You know young kids, they just do what they want.'' Herald Staff Writer Elysa Batista contributed to this report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Califan007 The Constipated Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 So supposedly Taylor was gonna turn himself in this morning...I take it he didn't. The police are looking for him...can't find him. Gibbs has been trying to contact him...he won't return calls. His mom was asked...she doesn't know where he is, and is praying he isn't hurt. His grandmother was asked...she said he had dinner with her Wednesday, and hasn't heard from him since. If his "involvement" with this shooting was merely as an innocent bystander...he would have more than likely been in contact with the police by now, as well as let his own mother know he's ok. Obviously his involvement goes beyond witnessing a drive-by while walking back from the 7-11 for a pack a smokes.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Califan007 The Constipated Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 This has been made into a thread already, I believe...as well as, it's Saturday morning and he hasn't turned himself in..lol...so not sure how accurate Sedano's info really is.

Lavarleap56 Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 the police can only attest that the individuals they have interviewed are not injured obviously NOBODY can get in contact with Taylor so they cant say he is not injured. I just find it a little odd that Sean hasnt talked to anyone in his family since Wed. night. He could be in the hospital for all we know, look how long it took for us to find out Michael Vick was Ron Mexico ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
