Jovan Belcher, Kansas City Chiefs American football player, has shot himself dead in front of his team officials minutes after he reportedly killed his girlfriend.
According to police, Belcher, 25, drove to a training facility at Arrowhead Stadium after murdering Kasandra Perkins and then killed himself in the car park.
“We are co-operating with authorities in their investigation”, the club said in a statement, according to BBC.
The couple had been together for about three years.
Belcher was a linebacker for the club; “the deaths sent shock waves through the National Football League and its millions of fans,” The Guardian said.
