CAPE TOWN, South Africa -- Oscar Pistorius was served with new indictment papers Wednesday containing two extra charges believed to allege that he recklessly shot his gun out the open sunroof of a car last year and fired someone elses handgun at a restaurant weeks before he killed girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. The double-amputee Olympian has already been indicted on a main charge of murder for the Feb. 14 shooting death of Reeva Steenkamp and another firearm charge for illegal possession of ammunition in his home. He now faces the two additional charges relating to firing guns in public. Pistorius will likely face all four charges at his trial starting in March, although his lawyers can argue against the new gun charges being added to his current indictment as the offences are alleged to have taken place in Johannesburg -- a different court jurisdiction to Pistorius fatal shooting of Steenkamp at his upscale villa in the South African capital, Pretoria, in the pre-dawn hours of Valentines Day. Pistorius lawyers were served with the new papers, South Africas national prosecution spokesman Nathi Mncube told The Associated Press. "What happened today is ... Mr. Pistorius was served with a new indictment." Mncube said. "We have to advise him (of the extra charges) to accord him with enough time to prepare his defence." Mncube declined to give the exact details of the new charges, only saying they "relate to the contravention of the firearms act." Mncube also said there had been no indication from Pistorius lawyers if they would challenge the adding of the charges to Pistorius indictment for the trial. Prosecutors sought special permission to include the two gun charges against Pistorius on the indictment because they did not fall in the same jurisdiction. Permission was granted by South Africas director of public prosecutions last month. Its reported in South Africa that the new charges relate to two alleged incidents where Pistorius recklessly shot a gun in public: The first when Pistorius is alleged to have fired his own licensed 9mm handgun -- the gun used to kill Steenkamp -- out the open sunroof of a car in Johannesburg while travelling with friends last year. In the second in January this year, and just weeks before Steenkamps shooting death, Pistorius is said to have accidentally shot a friends gun under the table at a Johannesburg restaurant, apparently while admiring it. For both alleged offences he could be charged with public endangerment and damage to property. The multiple Paralympic champion, known as the Blade Runner, is world-famous for his carbon fiber running blades and for becoming the first amputee to compete on the track at the Olympics. He already faces a possible life sentence with a minimum of 25 years in prison if he is convicted of premeditated murder for fatally shooting Steenkamp. Pistorius says he shot her by mistake thinking she was a dangerous intruder in his house. It will be Pistorius 27th birthday on Friday and he was photographed by a newspaper this weekend while out at a Johannesburg restaurant with family, according to the paper. The City Press published photos Sunday of Pistorius in the restaurant wearing a white T-shirt and with a short beard, smiling in one photo and with a black baseball cap pulled down near his eyes in another. The newspaper also quoted Pistorius as saying that he was "anxious" about his upcoming trial. "I feel calm. I now spend most of my time with my family and I enjoy their company," Pistorius said, according to the newspaper, in rare public comments. "They are wonderful and their support is incredible. But, I must say, at the same time I am also anxious about the upcoming court case." Dillon Brooks Jersey . Louis Blues were workmanlike, methodical and -- most of all -- effective on Monday night.

Jeff Carter had two goals and an assist as the Kings stretched their streak to seven wins in a row with a 4-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Sunday.FOXBOROUGH, Mass. - Julian Edelmans college coach saw him make some amazing plays while he was at school.So he wasnt shocked when the wide receiver unleashed a 51-yard touchdown pass for the Patriots.When youre only going to throw one pass in an entire game and you make it a perfect strike, Doug Martin said, thats big.Edelmans junior college offensive co-ordinator also was watching on television last Saturday when Edelman hit Danny Amendola with the tying throw late in the third quarter of New Englands 35-31 divisional playoff win over the Baltimore Ravens.I texted him after the game, Bret Pollack said. I said, it reminded me of the old days and he said it kind of felt the same way.Those days go back to Edelmans time at Woodside High School in California where he carried the Wildcats to a 13-0 record as a senior.On Sunday night, hell play in the AFC championship game against the Indianapolis Colts (13-5) after leading the Patriots (13-4) with 92 receptions in the regular season and adding eight against Baltimore.Thats quite a journey for an undersized athlete who had to go to the College of San Mateo for one year to attract scholarship offers, received just two from four-year colleges after that and wasnt drafted until the final round in 2009.Pollack, since promoted to head coach at San Mateo, remembers Edelman as driven, hard-working and extremely elusive.Hes very tenacious. Hes unrelenting, Pollack said. If somebody tells him he cant do something, all his energy goes into doing it just to say, I told you so. During Edelmans season at San Mateo, Martin, the coach at Kent State at the time, told him hed have a chance to compete for the quarterback job at the Ohio school.Edelman jumped at it.He has a really healthy chip on his shoulder, said Martin, now head coach at New Mexico State. Its not like it consumes him, but it drives him. And I dont think in 30 years of coaching Ive ever had a player thats been more appreciative than Julian of the opportunity we gave him.He texted me after Saturdays game and said, Coach, I just want to thank you for everything to give me the opportunity to be where I am today.Edelman got his NFL opportunity when the Patriots drafted him in the seventh round, the 232nd out of 256 players picked.Playing behind Wes Welker, he caught just 69 passes as he battled injuries in his first four seasons. While waiting his turn at wide receiver, Edelman returned three punts for touchdowns — one each in 2010, 2011 and 2012 — showing elusiveness developed in spread offences at San Matteo and Kent State.dddddddddddde made plays for us where you just shook your head and said, Wow, Pollack said.After the 2012 season, Welker left for Denver and Edelman became a free agent before signing a one-year contract with New England.His 105-catch season in 2013 earned him a four-year deal.Everyone starts at a certain place, but you earn what you get in the NFL. The competition is tough, quarterback Tom Brady said. So a guy like Julian, for example, who has fought every single day of his life to get to this point — talk about something that strengthened him over time — obviously his experience as a younger athlete did.He fought every day since he got here and he doesnt stop now.Edelman says hes self-motivated, but also got a push from his father while preparing for the NFL combine.Id be done training and hed be like, Did you outwork those guys? Edelman said, and I was like, Dad, I was running by myself. He goes, Im not talking about those guys. Im talking about the three kids that are still in high school that are going to be trying to take your job in three, four years, five years.I always try to think about (that) kind of stuff.In three years at Kent State, Edelman threw for 30 touchdowns and ran for 22.His coach, Martin, took over in 2004 for Dean Pees. Hes the Ravens co-ordinator whose defence gave up Edelmans touchdown pass.And this Sunday night, the Patriots will face the Kent State quarterback who preceded Edelman, Colts kickoff and punt returner Josh Cribbs.Ive never been around a more competitive person than Julian, Martin said. Its not even close.Patriots special teams captain Matthew Slater sees that all the time. Theyve been roommates for four years and have adjacent lockers at Gillette Stadium.Its somewhat of an odd couple — the religious Slater and the fun-loving Edelman — but both work extremely hard at football.He was raised by some great folks that really instilled him (with a) work ethic and understood that nothing was going to be given to you in this life, Slater said. And hes embraced that.Coach Bill Belichick demands maximum effort and, he says, no one works harder than Edelman.So even though the Patriots had never used Edelmans pass play this season, they kept practicing it until they found just the right moment. And Martin, at home in New Mexico, watched with pride.I told him I was glad to see he could still throw a little bit, he said with a laugh. Hes just really excited to be where he is.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
