POLICE MAKE ARREST IN MCNAIR DEATH

A man who allegedly sold the gun that killed former American footballer STEVE MCNAIR has been arrested by federal agents, following the star's tragic murder-suicide death.
The married former Tennessee Titans and Baltimore Ravens quarterback, 36, was found with two gunshot wounds to the head and two to the chest on 4 July (09) in a downtown Nashville condominium. The body of his girlfriend, Sahel Kazemi, was found nearby, with just one gunshot.
Tennessee police announced last week (08Jul09) that MCNair was killed by Kazemi - who they believe fired the semi-automatic weapon, recovered from beside her own body, and turned the gun on herself.
According to TMZ.com, law enforcement agents at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives have taken an as yet unidentified man - who allegedly sold the gun to Kazemi on 2 July (09) - into custody in Nashville, Tennessee.
Charges are expected to be announced on Friday afternoon (17Jul09).
