Sunday Afternoon Update: McNair Murder

((HT: ESPN))

Another round with Bob Holtzman of the four-letter (after the Metro Nashville Police Department presser with Don Aaron) revealing a few details involving the murder of Steve McNair and the shooting death of Sahel Kazemi...


McNair, 36, was shot four times, twice in the head and twice in the chest, by a semiautomatic pistol, Nashville police spokesman Don Aaron said during a news conference.

The woman, Sahel Kazemi, was killed by a single gunshot wound to the head and the pistol was found under her body, Aaron said.

Aaron said the two had been in a "dating relationship for past several months."

Asked if the deaths could have been caused by a lover's quarrel, Aaron said, "That's a very important part of the investigation as we work to ultimately classify Miss Kazemi's death."

Police said they need to do more interviews with friends of Kazemi and McNair before they rule on whether her death was a suicide, Aaron said.
