Aldon Smith Update: No Suspects In Weekend Stabbing
Deputies who responded to the incident also reported two gunshot victims. Sergeant Jose Cardoza said in the NFL.com report that the chaos around the incidents at the party complicated the search for suspects.
“There was a lot of confusion. People heard gunshots, people heard commotion, but nobody saw where it came from. Nobody saw anyone stab anyone,” Cardoza said. “We don’t know if it was one person responsible or more than one person responsible for the three victim injuries.”
The 49ers reported that Smith received only minor injuries in a brief statement following the incident. Smith made only one comment in the wake of the stabbing, thanking those who had wished him well via Twitter.
Thanks everyone for you support and concerns.
