Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher is reported to allegedly have had drinks and dinner with another woman before he went home and killed the mother of his child and himself.

According to the NY Daily News:

The Chiefs football player was carousing in downtown Kansas City with a woman other than his girlfriend Kasandra Perkins, a law enforcement official close to the investigation told Sports Illustrated.

Belcher, 25, and the unnamed woman became separated at some point, but he went to her apartment complex to meet up with her. She wasn’t there, but two of her neighbors let the intoxicated Belcher sleep in their apartment, they said.

The neighbors woke Belcher for a team meeting Saturday morning, as he instructed them to do, and he returned home to argue with Perkins, 22, before shooting her and himself.

This story is just tragic.
