KC Super Bowl Parade Mass Shooting

https://6abc.com/kansas-city-chiefs-...ting/14424556/

I wonder if this was a terror style mass shooting where a large amount of victims were gathered or an urban criminal style shooting where a few prohibited anti-social style folks have a disagreement and have to settle it by shooting it out?



So this report is leaning towards normal urban criminal activity.


At least one person was killed and as many as 15 others injured in a shooting in Kansas City, Missouri, after a rally Wednesday celebrating the Chiefs Super Bowl victory, authorities said.

Of the injured, three were in critical condition, five were in serious condition and one person had non-life-threatening injuries, Kansas City Fire Department Battalion Chief Michael Hopkins said.

Two people were detained after the shooting near a garage west of Union Station, the Kansas City Police Department said in a statement.

The department did not identify suspects. The shooting appears to be criminal in nature and not terrorism, according to a preliminary investigation, three law enforcement officials briefed on the incident said.

Police asked people to quickly leave the area so victims could get medical aid.

Thousands of people had gathered in downtown Kansas City for a celebratory parade and rally at Union Station after the Chiefs' Super Bowl win on Sunday.

A senior White House official said that the Biden administration was "closely monitoring" the situation and that *federal law enforcement is on scene supporting local law enforcement.*

Drue Tranquill, a linebacker with the Chiefs, asked people to join him in prayer for the victims over *this heinous act.*

*Pray that doctors & first responders would have steady hands & that all would experience full healing,* he said on X.

"Praying for Kansas City," Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes also said on the platform.

Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly was at the celebration and was safely evacuated.

Does having 2 gunmen assume the latter option?

My niece (KC detective) was covering the parade in uniform with 600 other cops. The crowd took down one of the shooters to hold for police. Not sure about the other shooter but both in custody. No info yet from family grapevine on her involement but hope all is well.

Millions of fans in attendance should have initiated street justice on the guy they caught.

Perfect f*cking nationwide TV venue for a "guns are bad, shooters are societal victims" episode. Just as Biden's poll #s are tanking to new lows.
