The Original Sebastian Janikowski?

Somebody get Ace Ventura on the line:

Former Raider tied to shooting
Police looking for ex-NFL kicker in drive-by incident


Cole Ford acted like an ordinary guy during his years with the Oakland Raiders. He was always well dressed, clean cut and quiet.

"He looked more like a banker than a kicker," said David Humm, a Las Vegas resident and former Raiders quarterback who worked on the team's radio broadcasts during the mid-1990s.

But Humm's image of the former place kicker was a far cry from the bushy-haired fugitive who flashed across his TV screen Tuesday night.

"When I saw the picture ... I thought it was Charles Manson," Humm said. "That wasn't the guy I knew."

Las Vegas police have issued warrants for the arrest of Ford, 31, in a drive-by shooting last month outside the Jungle Palace home of Siegfried and Roy. The gunman yelled that the entertainers should leave the country, then fired at least four shotgun blasts at the home near Vegas and Rancho drives.
