Lions' receiver and brother stabbed outside Houston club
May 27, 2003
HOUSTON (AP) -- Detroit Lions receiver Scotty Anderson and his brother were stabbed in the parking lot of a Houston nightclub early Monday after a scuffle with another club patron.
Anderson's brother, Stevie, once a receiver with the New York Jets and Arizona Cardinals, was critically wounded and is hospitalized, Houston police spokesman Alvin Wright told The Associated Press.
Scotty Anderson's his injuries didn't appear to be life-threatening, Wright said.
Two men were arrested after fleeing the scene, police said. Police wouldn't release their identities and it is not known if charges have been filed against them.
The fight happened shortly after the southwest Houston club, Crystal Nite Club, closed for the night, police said.
At about the same time, Wright said, a man fired a gun into a crowd of people at the other end of the parking lot. The man was later arrested. Wright said police doesn't believe the incidents are related.
``Nothing is final; nothing is complete,'' Wright said. ``We're still in the middle of an investigation.''
Anderson is entering his third year with the Lions. He caught 25 passes for 322 yards and one touchdown last season.
