The world has been engulfed in the complex story of New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, the murder investigation at his house, a rental car in his name and an apparent incident where he shot another man in the head which he’ll have to deal with in a court of law soon.
Things just got a lot crazier.
New reports coming out allege that Hernandez was in fact the driver of the vehicle in question. Reports say Hernandez and three others took the car out.
Only three, Hernandez included, returned.
The reports come from Ted Daniel of Fox 25 in Boston via Twitter. Check them out for yourself:

Any way you slice this things are not looking good for Hernandez. He’s deeply involved in this one way or another regardless of whether he committed any wrongdoing. More details report the murder was drug related, this time from Pete Thamel of Sports Illustrated:
Aaron Hernandez stuff. No muy bueno RT @SIPeteThamel: Fox 25 reports the murder is "drug related, specifically marijuana."

It’s hard to tell how this is all going to come together sooner rather than later, but it appears the police are compiling a large amount of evidence that will allow them to quickly take action in the next week or so, if not the next few days.
