Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez was questioned by police in a homicide investigation. Hernandez does not appear to be a suspect but police have searched his home and last night emerged with a mysterious box, the contents of which are unknown. Two men at the Hernandez home tried to escape while the home was being searched and were detained.
You don’t need to watch Law & Order to know this all sounds fishy.
Hernandez is not believed to be a murder suspect, according to a source, but a vehicle rented in his name has emerged as a key piece of evidence in the investigation. The Sun Chronicle of Attleboro, Mass., reported on Tuesday that police identified a rented 2013 Chevrolet Suburban with Rhode Island license plates in connection with the possible homicide. According to the paper, the vehicle is registered to Enterprise and investigators were hoping to analyze it for fingerprints. A source said Hernandez’s name is tied to that rental vehicle.
A jogger found the body of a 27-year-old Boston man on Monday in an North Attleboro clearing, less than a mile from Hernandez’s home.
Hernandez has obtained legal counsel but has not been arrested. Stay tuned because this story’s far from over.
