One person was killed and 22 others injured after a shooting near the
Kansas City Chief’s Super Bowl parade route following the festivities on
Wednesday afternoon, officials said.
Panicked crowds raced for cover as gunfire erupted west of Union Station
at the end of the victory parade — attended by thousands of fans.
The Kansas City Police Department said that one person died and a total
of 22 were injured by gunfire. Children’s Mercy Hospital Kansas City
told KSHB that the hospital is treating nine kids who have gunshot
wounds.
Several suspected shooters were taken into custody by police, according
to KSHB.

Video posted on social media shows police officers and military
personnel sprinting into the train station shortly after shots were
fired.
The officers seen entering the station were working to safely get people
outside and treat victims, police said. KCPD confirmed no officers were
involved in the shooting.
Other clips of the chaos show travelers running for their lives and
several injured people being taken out on stretchers.
One man in a red hoodie and red sweatpants at the scene was in police
custody.
Children’s Mercy Kansas City said it is receiving patients from the
rally at this time, KSHB reported.
“Please join me in prayer for all the victims in this heinous act,”
Chiefs linebacker Drue Tranquill wrote in a post that was retweeted by
quarterback and Super Bowl MVP, Patrick Mahomes.
“Pray that doctors & first responders would have steady hands & that all
would experience full healing,” Tranquill added. Rick Burkholder, the
Chiefs VP of Sports Medicine and performance, said that he, his wife and
head coach Andy Reid’s family were all safe and heading on a bus to
Arrowhead.
Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas urged revelers to “please stay clear of
the area.”
Child reunification stations have been set up inside the main entrance
of the station and at 2301 Main Street. Police said they “still have
several needing reunification.”

This is not a gun issue, it is an issue of poor upbringing and morals.
We will continue to see this until we discipline better and put away bad
guys.
