Yaqub Talib, who is the brother of former NFL cornerback and current Amazon NFL studio analyst Aqib Talib, has turned himself in after being wanted on a murder charge in the fatal shooting of a youth football coach, per TMZ Sports.<\/p>\n

The Lancaster, Texas, police department (h\/t Benjamin Allbright<\/a> of KOA Colorado) released a statement Sunday announcing an active warrant for his arrest, as well as the alleged circumstances of the shooting, which occurred Saturday evening following a youth football game at Lancaster Community Park:<\/p>\n

“Upon arrival, officials were notified of a disagreement among coaching staff and the officiating crew. During the disagreement the opposing coaching staff were involved in a physical altercation and one of the individuals involved in the altercation discharged a firearm striking one adult male. The victim was transported to a local hospital for treatment where he was later pronounced deceased.”<\/i><\/p>\n

An attorney representing Aqib Talib relayed to TMZ Sports that his client was present at the football field when the shooting happened.<\/p>\n

“Aqib was present when this unfortunate incident occurred and is very distraught and devastated over this terrible loss of life,” the statement read.<\/p>\n

“He would like to convey his condolences to the family of the victim and to everyone who witnessed this unfortunate tragedy.”<\/p>\n

Yaqub Talib was previously arrested for public intoxication after allegedly throwing bottles and causing a disturbance at a Dallas nightclub in 2014. Dallas police first reported that Aqib Talib was arrested before apologizing and issuing a correction.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
