Who tried to kill Andy Reid?

A bullet broke through the glass of an office at the Chiefs’ practice facility last summer, multiple sources told The Star.
Inside the office at the time: Andy Reid.

Reid, the 66-year-old head coach of three Super Bowl-winning teams in Kansas City, was not struck or injured by the gunshot, and neither was anyone else, according to a spokesperson for the Kansas City Police Department.

But the most prominent active head coach in the NFL now works protected by bulletproof glass, sources said, a safety measure installed soon after.

Several sources have confirmed the May 2024 event to The Star. It had previously not been widely known in the 15 months after its occurrence — even among those in the building. For many Chiefs players and staff, The Star’s report will be the first they have learned of the gunfire that hit the facility.

Reid was working alone in his practice facility office in early May 2024 when a bullet fired from outside the building penetrated the glass and shot a hole through the window and blinds. The bullet lodged into a wall between his bathroom and the entry door to his office.

That’s roughly 15 feet from Reid’s desk — the approximate distance between a 15-month well-kept secret and a stunning tragedy.
No arrests or charges have been made in the case. The investigation is ongoing, according to Kansas City Police Department spokesperson Capt. Jacob Becchina, who said “there is no indication this was a targeted incident at any person or organization.”

“Because the building was occupied at the time of the bullet coming through the window, the case is being investigated as an aggravated assault,” Becchina said.

Two other bullets struck the facility during the gunfire — one hitting the third floor, one floor above Reid’s office, and another an outdoor air conditioning unit, sources said.

The Chiefs declined comment for this story.

The gunfire occurred shortly after midnight on the morning of May 4, 2024, according to a sparse incident report provided by the Kansas City Police Department and obtained by The Star through the Missouri Sunshine Law.

The officers who arrived at the scene in the early morning hours of May 4 spoke with overnight security, who informed them someone “heard a noise and observed what appeared to be a bullet hole in a window,” Becchina said.

The department refused to provide further investigative or supplemental reports, citing the ongoing investigation.

54 minutes ago, The Elevator Killer said:

Tony Dungy for knocking him out of the playoffs every year.

Dungy coached the Colts from 1996 through 2008.  Tampa Bay and Indy. He retired after 2008.

Reid started coaching the Chefs in 2013.

What the fock are you talking about?

When he was at Tampa, the Eagles knocked us out of the playoffs every year until Gruden took over. Wasn't Reed the coach in Philly at that time?

Tony Dungy coached the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 1996 to 2001. This spanned six seasons, during which he significantly improved the team's performance and led them to four playoff appearances. 

Andy Reid coached the Philadelphia Eagles from 1999 to 2012. He was hired as head coach on January 11, 1999. During his time with the Eagles, the team made nine playoff appearances, including a Super Bowl appearance in 2004

 

  • 2000:
    The Buccaneers made the playoffs as a Wild Card team with a 10-6 record, but lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Wild Card round. 
     
  • 2001:
    The Buccaneers reached the playoffs again as a Wild Card team with a 9-7 record, but were defeated by the Philadelphia Eagles in the Wild Card round. 
     
    OK not every year.
