Murdered soccer star Isidore Philip Tisson's family seeks funeral aid
Dozens of mourners gathered at the St. Lucia house in East Flatbush, Brooklyn, Wednesday to raise money so the family of a soccer star shot execution-style can bury him in his homeland.
Isidore Philip Tisson, 27, was shot twice in the head as he sat in a car on a Brooklyn street early Monday, just hours after the star striker scored a game-winning goal to send his team to the finals of the Digicel Caribbean Cup.
"I'm taking it one day at a time," said Tisson's father, Phillip Alcee, 61. "I am hoping justice takes its course."
Investigators are still searching for a gunman and are exploring whether the bullets were intended for one of the four women who were with Tisson, sources said.
Tisson may have stepped into the middle of a beef that started between the woman and another man inside the nearby Tropiks nightclub, sources said.
