Overview
- Deputies say the shooting at the Bieniemy family home occurred on Sunday, July 26, and 57-year-old Mia Bieniemy was found with multiple gunshot wounds and hospitalized.
- Mia has been moved out of the intensive care unit and Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said she is making progress.
- Elijah Zion Bieniemy, 27, was arrested at the scene and charged with malicious wounding, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, and discharge of a firearm inside a dwelling, and he is being held without bond.
- A judge granted a court-ordered competency evaluation after defense filings raised mental-health concerns, and that review has paused scheduled hearings with a preliminary date rescheduled to September 9.
- Police say a Ruger .22-caliber firearm was used, investigators released dispatch audio and doorbell video of the response, and the probe continues with no public motive disclosed while the Chiefs keep Eric Bieniemy with his family and staff cover his duties.
