NFL Star Steve McNair Killed by Girlfriend

Police have concluded that the NFL star Steve McNair was killed by his girlfriend, named Sahel Kazemi. They believe that he was sleeping on the sofa of his condominium early on Saturday morning when Kazemi fired four shots at him, two to the head and two to his chest. She then sat down next to him and killed herself with one shot to the head. Forensic tests show that all five of the bullets were fired from Kazemi's gun and there was gunpowder residue on her hands. It is assumed that she did it because she thought that McNair was having a relationship with another woman and she was also considering committing suicide. McNair and Kazemi had been dating for about six months even though McNair is married to another woman named Mechelle. A friend of McNair, named Wayne Neely, found the bodies and called another friend, named Robert Gaddy, who called 911.

Steve McNair had played 12 seasons in the N.F.L and played for the Titans. A memorial is scheduled at Nashville's Mount Zion Baptist Church on Thursday. Another memorial will take place at the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg, MS. The funeral will be on Saturday in Hattiesburg.
