GRETNA, La. (CBSNewYork/AP) — The trial in a road-rage shooting that left former Jets running back Joe McKnight dead is set to begin with jury selection Tuesday in a New Orleans suburb.
Ronald Gasser, 55, is charged with second-degree murder in the Dec. 1, 2016, shooting of the football star.
McKnight, 28, was a running back, considered a top recruit when he came out of John Curtis Christian School in the New Orleans area. He played college ball at Southern California before three seasons with the Jets and one with the Kansas City Chiefs.
