“There is no indication this was a targeted incident at any person or organization,” Becchina said.

“Because the building was occupied at the time of the bullet coming through the window, the case is being investigated as an aggravated assault.”

Two other shots were also fired around the facility, according to the report. An air conditioning unit and the third floor were struck in addition to Reid’s office. No people were harmed by the incident.

Reid’s office is now protected by bulletproof glass.

Since becoming head coach of the Chiefs in 2013, the 67-year-old has led the team to five Super Bowl’s, winning three of them. The shooting incident came three months after the Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII, claiming their third championship in their last five seasons.
