DeKalb County, Ga., police are looking for suspended Tennessee Titans cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones this morning to question him about an incident involving gunfire near Interstate 285 in the suburbs of Atlanta.

According to DeKalb County public information officer Ariel Toledo, Jones is not currently believed to be involved in the shooting, but is someone police want to talk to for information about it. No charges have been filed against anyone in the alleged matter.

“At this time, we don’t believe Pacman Jones was involved in the shooting, but we are looking for him to talk to him about it,” Toledo said.

Police responded to shooting after an alleged fight at Club Blaze between Jones and his entourage and three other people.

The incident apparently spilled outside the club and as one group of people left, two other cars, a black Pontiac Grand Prix and a green Dodge Charger followed the first group. Shots allegedly were fired from one of the vehicles, and people from another vehicle fired back.

“The shots were fired from one of the cars and the victims then shot back,” Toledo said.

Jones is no stranger to trouble at Club Blaze. It was over an incident there that he was questioned by police regarding a fight at the club just days after being drafted by the Titans with the sixth pick overall.

Monday’s alleged incident would mark the 11th time Jones has been a person of interest in a police inquiry since being drafted. He currently has charges pending in Fayette County, Ga., from a 2006 felony obstruction of an officer charge and has been recommended for charges in a Las Vegas strip club fight that escalated into a triple shooting outside that bar. However, he has not been linked to the shooter.

Jones was suspended for the entire 2007 season for his misconduct by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell in April, a suspension he appealed, but then dropped last week.

Its called an entourage because one person is financing the deal.

They get to the club and someone is clearing paying for everything. Its probably not even Pacman doing so but its clearly his money.

When you roll 5 or 6 deep somewhere and everyone pays their own way, its called hanging with buddies, when its 5 or 6 deep and 1 person pays, it is an entourage....

And if you are paying for someone else to act stupid, its rather hard to use the 'its not me' defense.

Is it really? I don't think we know much about anything that happened.

Ok now we are blaming Pacman for other people's action's not just his own.

Strip clubs do not cause problems, it is acting stupid in strip clubs (hell, anywhere) that cause problems. I have been in more stip clubs than I can count and I haven't had problems because my buddies and I tend to keep to ourselves and just have fun, not cause problems for others.

 

[theogt]

even if he was not involved in the shooting, he was still involved in another altercation prior to it. Incredibly stupid just does not describe Pacman. And yet some are still defending him. I did not want to jump on this since it started with the Daily Turd-but it seems clear that once again he was in the middle of something really dumb.

Can you read?

Who is defending him?

Who is saying his behavior is okay? Who is saying his behavior is acceptable?

"Look fellas, I don't wanna get in any more trouble. You go shoot at them and then come back and pick me up, OK?"

:shoot1:

Wait.

Did you just ask him if he can read?

FWIW, I agree with you, yet again....

Some folks might need to start to believe that the "Turd" breaks stuff pretty regularly now.

Like what? What excuse? Are you making things up as you go?

True.

Mostly it's just posting news articles, though - like today.

10% of your post is made up of the letter "e".

I got my popcorn ready for this showdown...

Its clear that he is paying the freight for his "entourage". He is the one paying for all of it. If you pay for it you have some responsibility. And as I pointed out, he WAS there when the first fracas started. AND it is at a club where he has had trouble BEFORE.

So we mods are Reality's entourage? Well except that he doesn't pay.

1. That wasn't an excuse.

2. We have no idea if he paid for the entourage or if the "shooter" was even a member of said entourage if their "happy time with Starlett" was paid for by Pacman.

3. If you pay for someone's lap dance, and that person -- HOURS LATER -- shoots at someone else, you're somehow responsible?

My god, you've lost all sanity.

And where are people excusing PacMan's behavior, IF this alleged incident is true?

I think people are just looking for ways to make things his fault.
