A shooting at a concert at the Kamakazie Biker Club on Masonite Drive in Laurel left Mississippi native and All-SEC Missouri running back Ahmad Hardy wounded.
The shooting took place around 2 a.m. Sunday as the establishment was closing after an outdoor rap concert had ended. Laurel Police Department Sgt. Macon Davis described the scene as “a melee.”
“There had been a scheduled concert there of some rappers, or maybe a couple of different rappers,” Davis said. “It drew a large crowd, and then gunshots rang out at the end.”
Davis said they had two confirmed victims, Hardy being one of them, and a third confirmed victim. Hardy is reportedly in stable condition.
Three 19-year-old suspects from Laurel have been brought in for questioning by the LPD and are listed as on hold for another agency. Landice Magee, Jyon Sibley and Alvin Peyton were confirmed as the suspects in the shooting.

“Ahmad is deeply loved by his teammates, coaches, friends, family and fans,” the University of Missouri said in a statement. “We will continue to stand beside him and his family through this difficult time, offering our love, prayers, strength and support.”
The statement continued, “A timeline for his return to football activities is unknown at this time.”
Hardy, 20, is a first-team All-SEC selection from last season. He ran for 1,649 yards, second most in FBS. He also ran for 16 touchdowns in his first season with the Tigers.
According to the team, Hardy suffered a gunshot wound on Sunday morning and underwent surgery the same day. He is in stable condition.
