NFL player kills girlfriend, then commits suicide

Police in Kansas City are investigating related shootings Saturday morning, in which a Chiefs football player reportedly killed his girlfriend, then drove to the team's practice facility near Arrowhead Stadium and shot himself. CBS is reporting that the player was linebacker Jovan Belcher, a four-year veteran, though the club is only confirming that "there was an incident at Arrowhead" earlier. ESPN Radio tweeted that Belcher may have killed himself in front of head coach Romeo Crennel. Players are being asked to assemble at the team facility for a meeting about the situation, and NFL officials must decide whether Sunday's game at Arrowhead against the Carolina Panthers will continue as scheduled.
