CFLer Murdered Outside Calgary Nightclub


Story out of Calgary, Alberta:

A shooting outside of a southwest Calgary nightclub early Sunday has left Calgary Stampeder Mylan Hicks dead, the team has confirmed.

"Obviously this is an extremely difficult and upsetting time for the players and staff," the team's president and general manager John Hufnagel said.

Hicks signed with the Stampeders in May and was on Calgary's practice roster. He hadn't played a game this season with the Stampeders, who are currently first in the West Division and on a 12-game unbeaten streak.

Police responded to the Marquee Beer Market at 4630 Macleod Trail at about 2:30 a.m. after reports of shots fired.

Insp. Don Coleman said it wasn't clear yet if Hicks was targeted, but that the shooting resulted from an altercation that began in the club and continued outside.

Hicks was transported to hospital in life-threatening condition but later died from his injuries.

Police say they have three people of interest in custody, one who was known to police. Cont. (Video)
