The wife of Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy has been shot in their home in Virginia.
Sources tell ESPN that Mia Bieniemy has been hospitalized after the shooting took place at their house in Loudoun County.
Police told the outlet that a person was being treated for 'serious injuries' but did not disclose their identity.
Eric Bieniemy was in Missouri with the Chiefs as training camp has begun. The team was holding camp on the campus at Missouri Western State University in the town of St. Joseph.
In a statement on Monday, the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office said that police responded to a shooting in the 20000 block of Northpark Drive in Ashburn, Virginia at 7:32pm on Sunday night.
The Chiefs released their own statement, saying they are 'aware of the incident involving Eric Bieniemy's family' but didn't provide any other details.

It's unclear if any suspects have been identified in the shooting or what her condition is
Bieniemy recently returned to the Chiefs after spending three seasons away from the team
It is not clear if a suspect in the shooting has been identified or what the status of Mia Bieniemy's condition is.
Bieniemy spent multiple years with the Chiefs from 2013-2022 before departing for different opportunities as he pursued a head coaching gig.
While that job never materialized, he did become the assistant head coach and offensive coordinator for the Washington Commanders under Ron Rivera.
After Rivera was fired at the end of the season, Bieniemy left for his same job at UCLA.
When the Bruins went 5-7, Bieniemy departed once again to be the running backs coach for the Chicago Bears.
In the offseason, he returned to Kansas City to fill the offensive coordinator role that was voided when Matt Nagy's contract lapsed.
