Police: Female Victim Not McNair's Wife

Nashville Police confirmed that the second victim in the shooting of former Titans Quarterback Steve McNair was not his wife Mechelle.

Rumors circulated in the downtown area surrounding the murder scene Saturday afternoon that McNair's wife was the second victim. One media outlet reported Mechelle McNair had been in Mississippi at the time of the shooting.

While ruling out McNair's wife as the second victim, police did not identify her pending notification of next of kin.

Meantime, police continued their investigation into the incident Saturday evening. Just after 6:00pm, police towed two vehicles from the scene, a Lincoln Navigator and a Cadillac Excalade.

"The crime scene is being meticulously processed," Metro Police spokesman Don Aaron said. "We have experts who do that, they look for specific evidence. They are looking to put the pieces together."

Police were called to the area around 1:30pm Saturday afternoon after other condo dwellers heard gunshots. Aaron said McNair was shot in the head.

Several residents of the condominiums said they saw McNair in the area frequently.
