An under-9's football game turned to tragedy after the coach of one of the teams was shot dead following an argument between parents at the end of the match in Lancaster, Texas.
The brother of former NFL star Aqib Talib, Yaqub Talib, 39, is now wanted on charges of murder after he was allegedly involved in the fatal shooting at the children's football game on Saturday evening.
Friends and family identified the official who was killed as Mike Hickmon, who coached the Dragon Elite Academy team.
It's believed Hickmon was shot three times in front of his nine-year-old son who was on one of the teams.
Lancaster Police Department say Talib was involved in a physical altercation with the referees on the field before opening fire at Lancaster Community Park in southeast Dallas County.
Video of the shooting shows a man wearing a black hoodie and hat pulling out a gun and firing.
In chaotic footage shot from the side of the field, parents can be heard yelling and arguing amongst one another with some talking to match officials at the culmination of the game before a scuffle breaks out on the grass.

I guess when all you’ve got in your life is football, you might as well bust a cap on anyone who stands in your way of an MFL contract.
Thanks, I saw that later.
MSM won’t carry it because it doesn’t fit their narrative ...

Let’s face it, blacks ruin everything for everyone. Of course, we aren’t supposed to notice that, and if we notice it, we’re not supposed to say anything.
Bingo. Impulse control is a big problem in the black (no capital "b") community.
My kids were swimmers and water polo players. Never heard of anything like this happening at any swim meet. Wonder why?
The coach was black?
Unfortunately some in the Amish community can’t live in a civilized society.
Listen to their ‘music’.
Clink on the link and look, yes he was.

True but content providers aren't in it for charity. Either you pay the monthly fee or you put up with the ads. Either way, they need to get their revenue.
There use to be a show on Sports Network featuring youth football in Texas. Wonder if the Dragons were featured, can’t quite recal.
Dear God, that poor child. Sending up a prayer for him and for the family.
I hope the demon who did this is arrested, tried and never tastes freedom again.
This guy’s brother, Aqib Talib, was a very successful NFL player (defensive back), made millions and I think may have gotten at least one Super Bowl ring. But given Aqib’s on-field behavior (he was a bit of a psycho and got in more than his share of fights over the years) I’m not completely surprised somebody from his family would do something like this.
