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 Last edited by MoreLemonPledge; 12-01-2012 at 10:32 AM.. |

But if you can't understand the cognitive dissonance here and how someone would want to mitigate or undercut that, well so be it. There's nothing that makes anything about this good. But if the guy flat freaked the !@#$ out in a manner that hundreds of years of recorded history has suggested is simply not that uncommon...well it makes it suck just a little bit less. PS - Screen name smack is about the dumbest thing in the history of the internet, but hey, you really burned me on that one...

Its easy to wonder what the dynamic was there, did he really just 100% snap out of the clear blue over her getting home late from a concert?
That makes no sense at all, its all just sooo crazy... i hope the Chiefs are doing all they can for mom. |

Hey guys,
Pats fan here... I just wanted to pop in to give my heart felt condolences to the Chiefs fans on this site. It is an absolute tragedy that happened, I my heart breaks for all of you, but most importantly to the victim's family as well as the family of the shooter. Again, I'm so very sorry to hear about this senseless tragedy. |

I actually think the fact that he killed himself somehow has him being seen in a sympathetic light by some. Definitely by his teammates if you read their twitter accounts. |

Just a quick note to thank all the people who registered from other fan bases today to express their sympathy to the Chiefs' organization/community. Tough day.
