Oh, it's likely that it happened. The details are probably wrong, though.

Brothers Sought In Double Fatal Shooting Outside NCSU Football Game
Two Illinois Men Shot At Tailgating Party

POSTED: 7:23 pm EDT September 4, 2004
UPDATED: 12:13 am EDT September 5, 2004

RALEIGH, N.C. -- Officials are looking for two brothers in the shooting deaths of two men from Illinois, including a Marine, at a tailgating party across from Carter-Finley Stadium Saturday evening.

The shooting happened in a parking lot at Trinity Road and Youth Center Drive at about 6:20 p.m.

Kevin McCann, 23, of Chicago, Ill., died at the scene. 2nd Lt. Brett Harmon, 23, of Park Ridge, Ill., died at WakeMed.

One victim was shot in the head, the other in the neck according to authorities. Wake County Sheriff Donnie Harrison said neither were N.C. State students.

Authorities are looking for Timothy Johnson, 22, a student at N.C. State, and his brother, Tony, 20. The brothers have Raleigh and Tarboro addresses. They are considered armed and dangerous.

The brothers were last seen in a dark green Chrysler Cirrus with North Carolina license RSJ-7522. The car has damage to its right front fender and is registered to a Tarboro address.

Authorities are trying to determine if a fight led to the shooting.

Witnesses, including Tommy Rodwell, said a fight took place about an hour before the shooting.

"We were standing there and this girl came up. She was covered, splattered by blood because their friend had just been shot," Samantha Mitchell said.


The shooting happened after the North Carolina State Wolfpack kicked off its season home opener against the Richmond Spiders.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Wake County Sheriff's Office at (919) 856-6800.
