He drove into the stadium Friday afternoon and apparently summoned his former girlfriend who was working as a parking lot attendant. Police said that when the 41-year-old woman approached, he shot at her several times. She tried to run, but was struck at least once in the abdomen.

Collins then shot himself. Police said he never got out of his car.

The woman survived, but police said she lost a kidney, her spleen, and parts of her pancreas and liver.
