Buffalo Bills owner Ralph C. Wilson Jr., chief operating officer Russ Brandon, three other Bills officials and three players are expected to be subpoenaed to tell an Erie County grand jury what they know about the hit-and-run accident involving running back Marshawn Lynch's vehicle.

The players being issued subpoenas are Bills rookie wide receivers James Hardy and Steve Johnson and second-year offensive lineman Christian Gaddis, law-enforcement sources said late this afternoon.

Buffalo Bills' players to go to Grand Jury in connection to Marshawn Lynch

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - - It has just been announced that Buffalo Bills players will be called to appear before a Grand Jury in connection to player Marshawn Lynch's alleged hit and run accident in downtown Buffalo.
On Wednesday, investigators had attempted to talk with members of the Buffalo Bills team who may have witnessed the accident, but were told that they would only be able to speak with the Buffalo Bill's attorney.
Certain Bills' players will be subpoenaed on June 20, at 1:00 p.m.

Could this be this season's distraction & excuse for not making the playoffs this time around?

This case is so overblown that it's becoming embarrassing for the Bills organization, players, fans, police, DA, and Western NY!

Just wonderful.

In less than a month James Hardy has been accused of pulling a gun on his father and now is at center stage in a hit and run investigation.

He's making an impact and hasn't even played a down in the NFL yet - and at this rate he'll be in Attica by the time training camp opens. So much for upgrading the WR position, nice to know that Steve Johnson was there too.

Channel 4 is nothing and they call themselves #1 newscast in WNY

Ch 2 has been on this story since it's been going on, they're the ones that broke the story when it first happened and the other news have just jumped on the :

The Buffalo Police Department is now officially playing hardball with the Buffalo Bills in the hit-and-run case involving Marshawn Lynch's S.U.V.

A police source says team owner Ralph Wilson, and General Manager Russ Brandon will be subpoenaed to testify in front of a Grand Jury in the case.

In addition, three of Lynch's teammates and the team Chief of Security, Chris Clark, were subpoenaed Thursday afternoon.

The Grand Jury is expected to meet later this month.

The legal moves follow four Buffalo Police officers spending a little over an hour at One Bills Drive in Orchard Park Thursday, as they continued to investigate the hit-and-run accident.

A police source tells 2 On Your Side that Bills' personnel refused to answer questions about the incident and referred police to their attorneys.

Afterward, as the officers were driving away, they were asked how the meeting went. One officer shook his head and said, "not good."

Once again this only proves that Ch 2 IS ON YOUR SIDE!

Why Wilson and Brandon? that doesn't make much sense.

Re: Buffalo Bills' players to go to Grand Jury in connection to Marshawn Lynch

There's no legal reason at all for Wilson to testify, unless he was in the car. Maybe Ralph was wasted and Marshawn came to pick him up.

They are sending a message by asking Ralph and Russ to come in.

But isn't it kind of overkill to subpoena the "boss" of the guys involved? Come on, they know these guys don't know anything. All they would have is hearsay at best.

Re: Ralph Wilson and Russ Brandon subpoenaed in Lynch probe

This is such a circus....

Somebody should tell this DA to try and do his job instead of getting his name in the paper...

These people are clueless and their way to pour more gasoline on the fire is to invoke bigger names in the investigation so it holds more weight...

The name of the person, or how important they are makes no difference when they are all saying the same thing, 'I have no knowledge of what occurred.'

More bogus tactics from an egomaniacal DA to try and squeeze every drop out of his 15 minutes of fame.
