NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Police in Nashville are confirming that
ex-NFL star Steve McNair's 20-year-old girlfriend killed him before
turning the gun on herself.

They say they may never know what was going through Sahel
Kazemi's mind when she shot McNair in his condominium, but they say
it's clear it was a murder-suicide.

Police earlier had labeled McNair's death a homicide, but
awaited further tests and investigation before saying for sure what
happened.

They believe he was asleep on a sofa when Kazemi shot him in the
head. She then apparently shot him twice in the chest before
shooting him again in the head and then shooting herself.

McNair, a quarterback for the Tennessee Titans most of his
career, was shot at a condo he rented with another man. The gun was
found underneath Kazemi.

this is a sad,senseless loss.sometimes money makes people do terrible things. he got himself involved with a fatal attracion.now his wife and 4 sons are left hurting. how will his children feel growing up knowing their dad died in such a way? bet he never thought it would end this way. guess men better start thinking with the head thats on their shoulders, not the other one. it can get you killed. this woman was crazy; what did she solve by killing him and herself? she could have moved on. he should have been at home with his wife and children.
