- Their son allegedly shot Mia Bieniemy at the family home in Ashburn, Virginia, on Sunday, leaving her with two gunshot wounds that required surgery and a fragment remaining in her body.
- Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Mia has been moved out of the intensive care unit and is stable and making progress in her recovery.
- Elijah Zion Bieniemy, 27, was arrested and charged with malicious wounding, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, and discharge of a firearm inside a dwelling and is being held without bond.
- Defense filings and a judge’s order have prompted a court-ordered competency and mental-health evaluation, which has paused scheduled motions and preliminary hearings and will shape the case’s legal path.
- Eric Bieniemy has stayed in Virginia with his family while the Chiefs’ assistants, led by pass game coordinator Joe Bleymaier, have taken over his on-field duties and the team has given no timetable for his return.
