Kansas City shooting: Police have 3 suspects in custody after mother-of-two killed and 22 wounded at parade

Police said that 22 people had sustained gunshot injuries, and confirmed that one person had died at the scene.

Here’s what we know so far about the incident.

Here are some of the latest photos from Kansas.

Kansas City Police Chief Stacey Graves offered the following comments during a press briefing Wednesday just hours after a shooting at the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory parade left one person dead and 14 others injured.

“I’m angry at what happened today.

People who came to this celebration should expect a safe environment. We had over 800 law enforcement officers from Kansas City and other agencies at the location to keep everyone safe because of bad actors, which were very few.

This tragedy occurred even in the presence of uniformed law enforcement officers who again ran towards them and took them into custody. To the people who were injured in this tragedy. Our hearts go out to you and your families.

This investigation is just beginning And we are working safely to clear all surrounding areas and businesses. This is still an active investigation. We will continue to keep you updated.”

A video on social media has appeared to show the moment a handful of Kansas City Chiefs fans tackled someone to the ground as a crowd ran away in terror.

Kansas City Police Chief Stacey Graves told a news conference that police were investigating whether the person tackled in the video is a suspect.

In the footage, a single person can be seen running from the right, before two men bring them to the ground, while another signals for help. Two police officers arrive seconds later.

“I do want to comment on the question that I got earlier about a video of some fans tackling someone,” said Police chief Graves.

“We do have three persons detained and under investigation for today’s incident. We are working to determine if one of the three are the one that was in that video were fans assisted police.”

The Independent has chosen not to share this video while investigations are ongoing.

Yesterday’s shooting outside Union Station happened despite the presence of more than 800 police officers who were in the building and nearby, including on top of nearby structures, said mayor Quinton Lucas, who attended with his wife and mother and ran for safety when the shots rang out.

“Parades, rallies, schools, movies. It seems like almost nothing is safe,” Mr Lucas said.

Three people were in custody in Kansas City, Missouri facing questions about what led to a deadly mass shooting near the city’s Super Bowl victory rally and who was behind it.

Investigators were still unsure whether the Super Bowl victory celebration was targeted for attack, or whether the violence was incidental to the event and spilled over into it, said Police Chief Chief Stacey Graves.

Authorities appealed to anyone who had information about the shooting or video that might help shed light on what transpired to share it with police.

Missouri Senators Josh Hawley and Eric Schmitt offered comments in response to the mass shooting in Kansas City on Wednesday.

Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas said he was present when gunfire erupted at the Kansas City Chief’s Super Bowl victory parade on Wednesday.

“When the shooting started, I like many others, ran and ran for safety,” he said, noting that he saw police officers running toward the gunfire as he fled.

He then said an investigation was ongoing, and that the shooting was “absolutely a tragedy.”

“This is absolutely a tragedy the likes of which we would have never expected in Kansas City and the likes of which we will remember for some time. However, I want to say thank you to those who are making sure that we are safe today. Those were investigating this incident and those who will continue to make sure that those who committed these acts today are brought to justice,” he said.
