Chiefs Chiefs' Player Jevon Belcher involved in murder-suicide, shoots self at Arrowhead - Page 43

MoreLemonPledge · 10:32 AM

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.

I don't put people on ignore, but I do point out their awful, poor taste, garbage posts.

I support SOC. The fans have EVERY RIGHT TO DO SOMETHING.

I haven't like the vicious and malicious attacks on players. Like wishing death on players. You can see some of that even on this thread. That lack of civility and immaturity is not representative of most Chiefs fans but for some reason is allowed to flourish on this board.

You are one odd person, reading your posts in this thread is a mini case study into batshit crazy~

I don't think it will be either.

The players shouldn't have to stand for this bullshit EVERYBODY HAS TO PLAY 16 GAMES THAT'S THE RULE!

This may be the only reason we would actually see a cancellation...a player revolt. However, the league is going to do everything in their power to spin this and play this game. $$$, draft and fantasy implications are at stake

I probably meant to say could instead of should. in no way are the hunts obligated. I was saying in a humanitarian act to adopt the child.

So the owner of the Chiefs should adopt the baby over any potential loving family members because A) they're rich and B) Belcher was employed by the team?

Police say Belcher's mother was visiting, saw Jovan shoot his girlfriend multiple times, then leave. #chiefs http://www.kansascity.com/2012/12/01...M7vJZU.twitter …

Pioli, Romeo and whoever else witnessed the event need some time off and some professional help.

We're talking about a murderer. Belcher is not a victim. He should not be memorialized in any way. They should have a moment of silence only for those he hurt, and then try to forget about him. If Romeo cant coach tomorrow (understandable), let the assistants handle it.

1000000x this.

This game should not be played under no conditions tomorrow.

Even if it's true, it has ZERO to do with Belcher offing himself.

Nobody ever asked you to get banned when you do this shit during the season.

At a time like THIS, you're getting on your unstable soap box and preaching to us. If you're serious, then you're ****ing reeruned. If you're trolling, then you deserve to be banned for a year.

Which one is it, bitch?
