Shooting at Arrowhead- Chiefs player commits suicide
No details yet. Just came across on the news.
edit: Sources say the player is Jovan Belcher. Police have yet to confirm. An unnamed Kansas City Chiefs player has committed suicide at the team facility and authorities are on the scene, the police confirmed to ESPN on Saturday morning. Local reports say police are operating with the belief the player fatally shot his girlfriend at a house before driving to Arrowhead Stadium and killing himself at around 8 a.m local time. The Associated Press reported the player's age to be 25. "We can confirm that there was an incident at Arrowhead earlier this morning," the Chiefs said in a statement. "We are cooperating with authorities in their investigation." There were no other injuries at the team facility, police said. The Chiefs (1-10) were preparing to host the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. The NFL has told the Panthers to travel as planned to Kansas City on Saturday, the Charlotte Observer has reported, citing interim general manager Brandon Beane. http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/86...-team-facility |

there is a slight bit of relevance. Not caring at all about the season in regards to the team's record but the mental state of the team and franchise. This season has been an epic tragedy especially if this situation involves a player. But that it happened at Arrowhead at all... |

Jeff Rosen is confirming and has a picture of the Cops blocking any traffic into the facility.
@jeff_rosen88 Also @DannyParkins He has a picture of the cops. But seems odd he HAD to state he was the first local media there. |
