Boston.com reports super sad news today
Junior Seau, a 12-time NFL Pro Bowl linebacker, was found dead today in his home.
Police are currently investigating the shooting at the Oceanside, Calif., residence of the former New England Patriot and San Diego Charger’s football star. According to multiple reports, Seau committed suicide, found by his girlfriend at his beachfront home with a gunshot wound to his chest.
The Chargers released a statement on Seau’s death:
“Everyone at the Chargers is in complete shock and disbelief right now. We ask everyone to stop what they’re doing and send their prayers to Junior and his family.”
