  Reading comments from various articles, people are ready to execute the Hummer driver by hanging hm by his balls in the town square.
  
  Let's wait until we know all the facts. What did Smith do to possibly escalate the situation? The Hummer driver is being accused of road rage, but I kind of think we don't know the whole story yet.

  From what I have read - the Hummer (driven by the shooter) rear ended Will Smith's Mercedes G Wagon which pushed Mr. Smith's SUV into the back of the car in front of him, which was driven by one of Mr. Smith's friends.

  Some bizarre twists are unfolding.
  
  Apparently, Smith was returning from dinner where he had dined with a former NOPD officer who was sued by the Hummer driver for the wrongful shooting death of his father. The Hummer driver reportedly received a large out of court cash settlement. I guess that explains the Hummer.
  
  In another twist, I saw one report where he worked for the Saints in security.
  
  The case is worthy of an episode of Law & Order

  There seem to be some new plot twists, the defense lawyer made some reasonable statements about it being a case of self defense. Pointed out that the guy waited for the police and implied that Smith aggressor, along with a corroborating witness separate from the passenger in the shooters car. Folks this is going to take a while to sort out.
