Tennessee Titans quarterback Steve McNair leaves the field after the team's 27-12 win over the New Orleans Saints in Nashville, Tenn. McNair, who led the Tennessee Titans within a yard of forcing overtime in the 2000 Superbowl and led the Baltimore Ravens to the playoffs, has been shot and killed on Saturday, July 4, 2009.

Police have identified the woman found dead with former NFL quarterback Steve McNair, 36, as Sahel Kazemi, 20, described as a friend of McNair’s.
The Huffington Post is reporting that Kazemi died from a single gunshot to the head, while McNair was shot multiple times. The gun used in the shooting was found near Kazemi’s body.
According to police, McNair was found on the sofa and Kazemi was very close to him on the floor.
Don Aaron, a Nashville Police spokesperson said the gun was not “readily apparent when the scene was first locked down.”
McNair’s wife, Mechelle, is “very distraught” according to Aaron. “At this juncture, we do not believe she is involved. Nothing has been ruled out, but as far as actively looking for a suspect tonight, the answer would be no.”
Kazemi was arrested and released on Thursday after she was stopped by police for driving under the influence in a 2007 Cadillac Escalade registered to both her and McNair.
Autopsies for both McNair and Kazemi are scheduled to take place on Sunday.
