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.

This is really horrible. I hope this depressing season had nothing to do with it.

I've tried streaming two different KC news channels, and nothing.

Sorry to be the callas ass here but that's not true. I and we should have no sympathy for a murderer that commits suicide. Especially committing suicide in front of others that these innocent people now have to live with that with the memory of seeing someone commit suicide. I assure you that its not a sight that you can unsee. The GF and her family deserve out thought and prayers.

/based on current available information. If it wasn't a murder/suicide. I apologize now.

Football has nothing to do with this. Mental health does.

Schefter's first tweet:

Thoughts and prayers to the people at the Chiefs training facility apart of or who witnessed the shooting this morning.

**doomy3** · 12-01-2012, 09:46 AM

This is quite possibly the most unbelievable tragedy in the history of the NFL.

Well, the small fact that it apparently happened AT ARROWHEAD, DURING THE SEASON, THE DAY BEFORE A GAME, INVOLVING A CHIEFS PLAYER...

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...
