Oh wow. Shooting at the Chiefs facility. - The Orange Mane

CHANGSTER · 12-01-2012, 07:33 AM

A scary and confusing situation has arisen this morning at Arrowhead Stadium.

According to Jay Glazer of FOX, who is in Kansas City, a Chiefs player and another person have been found shot in the team’s facility. Glazer doesn’t specify the condition of the victims.

Glazer isn’t revealing the name of the player involved until the family is notified.

We’ll be providing more details as they become available. The situation is contained and there is no ongoing threat.

I hop eits not Charles i need him in fantasy football tomorrow.

cmhargrove · 12-01-2012, 07:37 AM

Terrible.

Winning and losing games is one thing, but it shouldn't be life and death. Dark times for the Chiefs.

UPDATE 10:36 a.m. ET: Per KCTV, one shooting occurred at the facility and a related shooting occurred elsewhere. A player reportedly shot and killed his girlfriend then drove to practice facility and shot himself there.

Word out of a KC local is that it was Inside line backer, Maine black bear Jovan Belcher. Looks like a murder/suicide. That sucks.

The name I'm hearing is Jovan Belcher per Chiefsplanet.

Wow this really puts the finishing touches on just a horrible year for the Chiefs.

Rohirrim · 12-01-2012, 07:54 AM

Damn! That is bizarre.

Horrible

Hulamau · 12-01-2012, 08:01 AM

Really ashame ... a real tragedy for both family's and a final tail spin on this hell hole of a season for Chief's fans. Condolences for all of the above.

bronco militia · 12-01-2012, 08:03 AM

What a mess...RIP

Cache Glades · 12-01-2012, 08:03 AM

NFL just had a press conference and Javon Belcher has been suspended by Roger Goodell for 4 games. Conduct detrimental to the league...

yerner · 12-01-2012, 08:04 AM

Not to be morbid, but I wonder if he pulled a Junior Seau so they could at least study his brain.

crush17 · 12-01-2012, 08:04 AM

Terrible, awful, sad.

My heart goes out to the victim's families and out to the Chiefs players and fans. Just a horrible situation.

eddie mac · 12-01-2012, 08:08 AM

Wow that is so sad! My heart goes out to the player's family and the other chief players.

eddie mac · 12-01-2012, 08:15 AM

Apparently he committed suicide in front of Chiefs coaches.

Not even an issue here, Jovan was a young player and a current depth chart starter to boot. Feel its safe to say, even at this very early stage of what is known that concussions had little to nothing to do with this one.

Really sucks in any event, and that he did it on a Saturday before a game really puts their defense in a tough situation tomorrow. Emotions will be running very low, no doubt, and little time to even game plan a little around his backup Brandon Silar starting ... assuming the suicide really if Jovan Belcher as early speculation seems to indicate?

Sounds like maybe some lovers quarrel murder/suicide ....Alas, a tragically permanent solution to a very transitory problem.

My heart goes out far more to the innocent woman he killed.
