Police Conclude Girlfriend Killed McNair and Herself

The Nashville police said Wednesday that Steve McNair was murdered by his girlfriend, Sahel Kazemi, who used the same gun to kill herself.

Police Chief Ronal Serpas said at a news conference that he believed McNair, the 36-year-old former Tennessee Titans quarterback, was asleep on the sofa at his condominium early Saturday morning when Kazemi fired four shots, two to his head and two to his chest. He said she then sat down next to him and killed herself with a single shot to the head.

Serpas said evidence at the scene and forensic tests showed that all five bullets were fired from Kazemi’s gun and showed gunpowder residue on her hands.

He said associates of Kazemi’s told investigators she was distraught recently. Kazemi apparently believed McNair was having a relationship with another woman and told a co-worker at Dave & Buster’s restaurant Friday night that she was considering suicide, Serpas said.
