Steve McNair was shot four times: twice in the head and twice in the chest. Sahel Kazemi was shot once in the side of the head. McNair was found seated on a couch in the living room. Kazemi was on the floor, close to McNair. * A semi-automatic pistol was recovered from under Kazemi's body. It was not initially visible and was discovered late in investigation of the crime scene. * The two died some time in the early Saturday hours and had been dead for a number of hours before they were discovered. * ATF is tracing the ownership of the pistol, and police are working to interview its owner. Aaron said the evidence at the scene is consistent with the gun recovered. * Friends said McNair and Kazemi had been dating over the past several months. * McNair's death has been ruled a homicide.

Here's an update from WSMV local ch.4 Former Titans QB Steve McNair Shot To Death POSTED: 3:38 pm CDT July 4, 2009 UPDATED: 12:47 pm CDT July 5, 2009 NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Nashville police and Titans' sources have confirmed that former Titans QB Steve McNair, 36, has been shot to death at a condominium in downtown Nashville. Wayne Neely, who co-rented the apartment with McNair where the two were found, found McNair on the couch and 20-year-old Sahel Kazemi on the floor of the locked apartment at about 1:30 p.m. Saturday. He called a friend, who called police. McNair had been shot several times, and Kazemi had been shot once. McNair's wife Mechelle said she had not heard from her husband in a couple of days. She was at the couple's home Saturday on Bear Road in Green Hills. Police spokesman Don Aaron did not rule out any possibility, although he said they are not actively looking for a suspect. He also said that the time of the deaths is uncertain and that the deaths may not have occurred Saturday. A source told Channel 4 News that McNair was seen at about 1 a.m. Saturday at a Nashville restaurant. "There are persons who were around the complex today, visitors, who have been taken to headquarters for questioning, just to see what they know, what they may have seen," Aaron said. "No one is in custody right now." A Lincoln Navigator and Cadillac Escalade were towed from the scene. The Escalade was registered to the address of McNair's restaurant and was under both victims' names. Kazemi was arrested early Thursday on charges of driving under the influence. McNair was a passenger in the vehicle. The owner of the building is Charles Cardwell Jr., a well-known Metro trustee. Cardwell said Neely worked or still works at Nashville Sporting Goods as a salesman. Cardwell, who also lived in the building, said the apartment was often vacant but that McNair used it when he came into town. Neely had rented the apartment for about four years, said Cardwell, who also said he isn't aware of previous problems at the apartment, which is near McNair's restaurant, Gridiron9. "Wayne Neely and Steve are good friends, and he was very upset and shaken for something like this to happen," said Cardwell, who said he had last seen McNair about six weeks ago. McNair played in the National Football League for 13 seasons before retiring last year. He was a three-time Pro-Bowler and the 2003 co-MVP of the league. McNair aided in the revitalization of the Jefferson Street area with the recent opening of Gridiron9, near Tennessee State University. He could be found at the restaurant sweeping floors, eating, serving and talking to people. Restaurant patrons have remarked upon how accessible he was, and many wrote memorial tributes to the athlete Saturday afternoon on the windows of Gridiron9. Metro Councilwoman Edith Langster called McNair "a role model and a legend." McNair is usually in Mississippi for the Fourth of July, holding an event for children in Mount Olive. That event was not held this year. "We played together, hung out together, had conversations about life outside of the game," said Eddie George, McNair's former Titans teammate. Gov. Phil Bredesen released a statement Saturday, saying, "Andrea (Conte) and I were very saddened by the news of Steve McNair's death. He has always felt like part of the Nashville family, and he will be sorely missed." The public interest in the scene near the apartment caused at least one accident early Saturday evening, in which the back of a vehicle was plowed into by another vehicle.

Another update. 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. Tennessee Governor Phil Bredesen released the following statement: Andrea and I were very saddened by the news of Steve McNair's death. He has always felt like part of the Nashville family, and he will be sorely missed. Several fans expressed shock and saddness in response to the news along with former teamates and other members of the Titans organization. Many people commented on how Steve was such an important part of the community. Steve McNair opened a restaurant, Gridiron 9 on Jefferson Street in North Nashville. An employee at McNair's restaurant said Steve McNair gave him hope. He said when no one else gave him a chance, Steve hired him immediately. Titans' owner ‘Bud' Adams Jr. released the following statement on the Titan's web site: "We are saddened and shocked to hear the news of Steve McNair's passing today. He was one of the finest players to play for our organization and one of the most beloved players by our fans. He played with unquestioned heart and leadership and led us to places that we had never reached, including our only Super Bowl. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family as they deal with his untimely passing." Hope Hines, NewsChannel 5's Chief Sports Reporter said Brad Hopkins, former All Pro Left Tackle, was very upset by the death of Steve McNair. He said he was dissapointed, and doesn't understand how people can take lives so violently. Hopkins said this is an example of how no one is immune to violence. "Steve was my friend, and that's the difference. I remember his first five minutes in the facility. Every walk he took, I was probably right next to him. We fought and bled together," said Hopkins. "Here's a man who was husband and a father. He meant a lot to a lot of people. Not just people on the football field," Hopkins continued. Jeff Diamond, former President of the Titans commented on Steve McNair's death: "First of all it's such a tragic, tragic thing. You just hate to see these things happen, and to happen to someone you like and respect and knew so well and had so many great times and moments with; it's a horrible, horrible story." Steve McNair was 36 years old. He leaves behind a wife Mechelle and four sons: Junior, Steven, Tyler and Trenton. Stay with NewsChannel5.com for more information as it becomes available.

HEY! I resemble that. And you don't have to be a red neck to love a good truck. When it comes to models, at one time or another, I have built everything from trucks and cars to planes, military ships (including one with sails and cannons and never again). I even have a couple Space Shuttles in the works right now. One will be on top of it's 747 transport, the other has tanks sitting on the launch pad. -

Thanks for posting that. Trying to improve my skills. I was getting ready to ask how you do this and I found your answer.

Glad we cleared that up. And I'm sure it's not the first time a director was in a movie, other than some of the obvious stars like Clint Eastwood. He directed almost all of his movies. The pizza delivery guy in the first F and F was the director of that movie too.
