LAS VEGAS - A strip club manager paralyzed in a triple shooting is suing the NFL, the Tennessee Titans and suspended player Adam 'Pacman' Jones, claiming they are responsible for his injuries.
Tommy Urbanski seeks unspecified damages in the lawsuit, which was filed Friday in Clark County District Court.
'The fact that the NFL and the Titans did not punish Adam 'Pacman' Jones until after Tommy was paralyzed is a proximate cause of Tommy's injuries,' said Matthew Dushoff, Urbanski's attorney.
Jones' attorney, Robert Langford, denied the cornerback had any responsibility for the man's injuries.
'There's no basis in fact for suing the NFL and the Titans,' Langford said.
Jones faces two felony charges alleging he incited a melee and threatened to kill people inside the club. No one has been charged in the shooting.
