Correction: This story previously reported that Williams had disarmed and shot an officer. This was incorrect and was based on the most recent information available at the time. More details of the incident have since come out clarifying that Williams did not disarm nor shoot an officer.

Former Western Michigan defensive tackle Jamal Williams was among two people killed in a shooting on Tuesday at a Hospital in Munster, Indiana, as confirmed by a team spokesperson.

NBC Chicago reported that officers were called to Munster Community Hospital at 901 McArthur Blvd., for a report of shots fired and a “physical disturbance between a patient and staff,” according to a statement from Munster Police.
