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.. |

Well there are times when this forum realizes we're not completely devoid of souls.

Could be the same thing, who knows. There was a case of a highschool player taking his own life which was then deemed to have been a result of repeated head trauma.

I think it's more of a underlying issue that wasn't found medically, perhaps? Again, I'm just only speculating anyways.

I don't know what to think. I'm a little surprised he's issuing a statement that he is concerned for the fanbase over this. You know, given how he's treated us...

I don't really know how to take that quote.
If things went down the way we are hearing, I'd venture to say there will be some resignations at the end of the year instead of firings |
