"There's a lot of pride in Kansas City, and we and our fans thought, 'You don't do that here,'" a Chiefs official told ESPN.
The NFL said it will investigate the report, but has not announced any disciplinary action so far.
A Kansas City television station discovered video of a laser shining on Brady during the AFC Championship Game and team officials investigated it.
Our photographer, Turner Twyman, caught someone pointing what appears to be a laser pointer in Tom Brady's face last night. Play between the "muff" that wasn't and Sorensen int. @NFL, @Patriots and @Chiefs all told me they weren't aware of the incident. pic.twitter.com/ejWBQ6i64C

ESPN Reports:
"The Kansas City police department initially wanted to cite the fan with disorderly conduct, but Chiefs officials didn't feel those charges were strong enough and instead have been pushing for ‘the harshest penalty possible,’ in the words of one source."
Lasers are prohibited at NFL games.
