NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Former Titans quarterback Steve McNair has been killed. Police said McNair suffered a fatal gunshot wound to the head in downtown Nashville.
The incident happened near 2nd Avenue South & Lea Avenue in a residence Steve McNair was renting.
The call came into police at 1:35 p.m. A crowd began to gather in the area where Steve McNair's body was found Saturday afternoon.
"When police officers arrived in response to that call, they found two individuals who had been shot to death inside the residence: one female, one male. We now know that the male deceased is Steve McNair. The female deceased has been tentatively identified. We're working to confirm that and then notify her next of kin," said Don Aaron with Metro Police on the situation.
According to police, there were no signs of forced entry at the crime scene. While the female victim's identity has not been released, police are confirming she is not Mechelle McNair.
"There were persons who were around the complex today who have been taken to headquarters for questioning," Don Aaron explained. However, he made it clear that there were no suspects in custody at the time.
According to Don Aaron, no suspects have been taken into custody. Several people were being taken to police headquarters for questioning, so police could get information about the circumstances surrounding the shooting deaths.
Add another well-known figure to the list of this week's casualties. Not that big a Titans fan, but seeing as I was less than twenty miles from where it happened, and was at work in a sporting goods store at the time, the news was buzzing around there fairly quickly.
Condolences to his family.
EDIT: Digg link wot I found.
Yeah, my dad was telling me about this after I got home. Antipode, you're from Tennessee? I thought I was the only one from the Volunteer State here.
Thrive in Heaven, Steve McNair!
I'm like 15 minutes from TN, so i'm a near resident. 😛 But my gosh...these last few weeks have been insane. =/
Guys, people die everyday and it just happens that some famous people have been the ones to die. This isn't abnormal in anyway, death happens all the time, even to celebrity's.
P.S. I'm saying this not because of anything you guys have said but because of what people have been saying so sorry if I offend any of you, hopefully Ben Franklin will find the cure for death soon.

Y'know what? I completely agree with you (surprisingly enough). This news didn't shock me as much as MJ's death since I didn't even know who Steve McNair was (hell, I still don't know who he is). He seems to be a celebrity exclusively in the States. But yeah..... I guess the money-hungry media are keen to report more and more celeb deaths because they grab attention with such relative ease and line their pockets up with $$$$$.
That is the truth, Swanson...I just thought the Ravens were going to do something this fall. Heh...
