The shooting took place Saturday afternoon in the parking lot at Dublin sports grounds.

According to court documents, McKinsey and his wife, Candice Jang, were in the middle of a child custody battle.

Records show, last year a judge granted Jang's petition for a domestic violence temporary restraining order against McKinsey.

He filed for divorce in December. A hearing was scheduled for next month.
