Aqib Talib's brother allegedly shoots and kills little league coach after spat during game

Former cornerback Aqib Talib's brother, Yaqub Talib, is a suspect in the murder of a youth football coach at a Little League game in Texas on Saturday evening.

According to police in Lancaster, Texas, there was a fight at the game after some disagreements between the coaching staff and the officiating crew. After a fight broke out, shots were fired, with the whole incident caught on tape.

The South East Dallas Wolverines coach who was killed was identified as Mike Hickmon, who was 43 years old. Yaqub Talib is the chief suspect and the police are currently looking for him.

In 2015, both Aqib and Yaqub were investigated for an alleged aggravated assault involving a firearm outside a Dallas nightclub. Dallas PD suspended the case after a month and neither man was charged.

Here's what Yaqub told police about the incident in 2015:

“Where we grew up, you fought quicker than normal. You didn't want anybody to see a weakness. It was the culture we grew up in… Looking back on it, I think it created an us-against-the world attitude.”
