Chad Johnson is currently being questioned or he is going to be questioned about a murder last friday night he is not a suspect they are just bringing him in to ask a few questions probably if he knew where all his teammates were at.

Bengals wide receiver Chad Johnson was interviewed by Miami homicide detectives as part of an investigation into a shooting death, the Miami Herald is reporting.

The Herald said police declined to address Johnson’s connection to the investigation into the shooting death of Curtis Dopson last Friday.

The Enquirer reached Johnson on his cell phone after midnight this morning.
“I don’t know what’s going on,” Johnson said. “You know I don’t know nothing about that kind of stuff.”

Johnson, a Miami native, has been in his hometown this week as part of festivities leading to Sunday’s Super Bowl XLI.

From that above link, as a pullout to the side of the main story:

Bengals press release

The Bengals released this official statement about 2 a.m. Friday morning:

"Chad has confirmed to the club that he cooperated with the Miami police earlier this week as part of an investigation. Police have characterized this as a routine procedure and have stressed that Chad is not a suspect or even a person of interest in this case.

"Given that, we see no cause to comment further."
