I found this on NFL.com today.


Denver Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams was shot and killed in a
drive-by shooting in downtown Denver.

Team spokesman Jim Saccomano said police called him about 3 a.m. from
the scene of the shooting and told him three people had been shot and
that Williams had been killed.

A little after 2 a.m., a white Hummer limousine was sprayed with bullets
from a vehicle that pulled up along its side, said Sonny Jackson,
spokesperson for the Denver Police Department.

Three people in the limousine were hit and were taken to area hospitals,
where one man was pronounced dead, Jackson said. The other man and woman
who were shot were not identified.

Jackson said police were searching for the suspects and interviewing
witnesses.

"We have no motive yet," Jackson said. "We're hoping to talk with
witnesses to find out where they were coming from, and that might give
us some clues."

Saccomano said he spoke with coach Mike Shanahan and others in the
organization.

"Complete shock. We're speechless. It takes words away. A terrible
tragedy," Saccomano said.

Hours before the shooting, the Broncos lost to San Francisco 26-23 in
overtime, eliminating them from the playoff race.

The 24-year-old Williams finished the season with 88 tackles, 78 of them
solo, and four interceptions.

On Sunday against the 49ers, he had three tackles and returned two punts
for 50 yards before leaving the game with a shoulder injury late in the
second half.

Williams, a second-round draft pick out of Oklahoma State in 2005, made
an immediate impact on the Broncos, starting nine times in his rookie
season following a stellar career at Oklahoma State, where he totaled 11
interceptions and scored three touchdowns on punt returns.

time before they even have a chance, I guess when your times up it's up.
