Former Indianapolis Colts running back and local fan favorite Zurlon Tipton was killed on Tuesday, pronounced dead from an accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound to the abdominal area. Tipton was just 26 years old.
The Colts community took to social media to share in their support of the Tipton family, as well as the grief of losing a member of the Colts family.
Our thoughts are with the Tipton family during this difficult time. #RIPZurlon pic.twitter.com/QCLCCY5eqI
