The Kansas City Chiefs got some disturbing news this week after a report came out that three fans of the team reportedly froze to death at a friend’s house watching the game. The incident occurred back in the last week of the regular season when Kansas City took on the Los Angeles Chargers. The friends got together to watch the game and froze to death over multiple days according to the report.

How do three people freeze to death in the back yard of their friend's presumably warm home? That makes no sense at all.

It’s a strange story, did they really just sit there and freeze, it’s not clear and a thorough investigation needs to be carried out.

Was Foul Play Involved?
Fans are calling out the report for not having enough details on the incident, and that the police need to do a more thorough investigation. The report states that the homeowner fell asleep with headphones on next to a loud fan, which caused him not to realize his friends were in danger. There have not been any arrests made as of right now, but that could change depending on what police find as they continue the investigation.
While the details revealed are not the clearest, there are still several unknown questions regarding the incident, and fans want the police to take a deeper dive into the tragedy. As of right now, the victim’s loved ones seem to be in better spirits and continue to watch their Chiefs make a Super Bowl run. Do you think that this incident was just a tragedy, or was there any kind of foul play involved in these deaths?
