NFL star Steve McNair shot dead at 36
The NFL lost another one of its heroes.
In what has been one of the more shocking news of the 4th of July weekend, former NFL quarterback Steve McNair was killed in Nashville, Tennessee due to fatal gunshot wounds.
You read it, the NFL lost one of its football heroes last Sunday when McNair, who was 36, was found dead by the police in his condominium in Nashville. McNair was shot four times, twice in the head and twice in the chest.
The police is ruling it a homicide after they found the lifeless body of the former Baltimore Ravens quarterback along with his 20-year-old girlfriend, Sahel Kazemi, who was also shot in the head. The police also found a semi-automatic pistol underneath Kazemi’s body.
According to the police, there were no signs of forced entry into the Nashville apartment but they didn’t speculate in their statement on whether Kazumi is believed to have murdered McNair and committed suicide.
‘’While it is clear McNair’s death is a homicide, the police department is not classifying Kazemi’s death pending further investigation and interviews with persons who knew her and McNair,’’ Nashville police said in the statement.
The Baltimore Ravens, the last team McNair played for, will now welcome the coming 2009 NFL football season with a heavy heart. Still, these guys should be able to come out on that field, determined to give their fans something to cheer about. Besides, with McNair’s untimely death, the least they can do is win some games for the guy right?
