NEW ORLEANS – Police say former Buckeye and New Orleans Saints star Will Smith had a loaded gun inside his vehicle when he was shot to death last weekend.
Police also say they found a loaded revolver inside the vehicle of Cardell Hayes, the man accused of shooting Smith.
However, police added that there was no evidence to suggest either of those weapons was fired during the shooting Saturday night, and that Hayes shot Smith with a different handgun.
Meanwhile, surveillance video from the night Smith was shot appears to show Smith’s vehicle bumping Hayes’s.
The Saints and Smith’s family will host a visitation on Friday at the team’s indoor practice facility
