KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) _ Authorities in Texas say rookie Kansas Chiefs
quarterback Patrick Mahomes escaped injury after being robbed last weekend.

The Smith County, Texas, Sheriff’s Office says Mahomes and three other victims
were stepping from a vehicle on a driveway outside Tyler on Friday night when a
suspect approached and gestured he had a handgun in his waistband.

Investigators say the man took property from the victims and sped away.
Deputies later arrested two suspects and recovered items taken during the
holdup.

Smith County sheriff’s Sgt. Darrell Coslin told The Associated Press that the
robbery appeared random, and that Mahomes was not targeted.

Mahomes played at Texas Tech and last month was selected by the Chiefs with the
10th pick in the first round of the NFL draft.
