There were some strange tweets from Jerome Messam this morning. Makes a bit more sense now. This is friggin sad.

Awful news. I don't get why Messam is all upset about the police not arresting someone right away.

Because he was upset a teammate was shot and killed and is likely not thinking clearly.

Brutal.

We always like to think these things are targeted/known to the killer in an effort to help make us feel safer, but I doubt this was the case.

Terrible news. ####### Crack Alley, always been a dive and full of low lives. Never understood the appeal of that place. What a horrible way to go, RIP.

Grows up in Detroit, shot to death in Calgary. That's some tragic irony.

Forgive me because I am old and spend my Saturday nights in the comfort of my basement, but is the picture of the comely lasses of virtue true from inside the marquee?

Is there any speculation that hicks was the target, or was he in the wrong place at the wrong time?

Ah yes, the Marquee is Calgary's exclusive home of drunk, attractive women..

And from early reports it sounds like a fight that started inside and carried on later outside. Though as early reports go, there's conflicting stories of it not starting inside. Still too early for clear details i suspect. Still seems surreal, just awful

I heard from someone that was working that the fight broke out inside the club, they got kicked out and the guy went and grabbed a gun from his car.

If that is true, there is potential for a First Degree murder charge eh?
