From The New York Post:
One person was killed and nine others injured after a shooting near the Kansas City Chief’s Super Bowl parade route following the festivities on Wednesday afternoon, reports 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 Fire Department said that three victims were in critical condition, while five others suffered serious injuries. One person was listed as stable, according to KMOX St. Louis News.
“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.
Please join me in prayer for all the victims in this heinous act.
Pray that doctors & first responders would have steady hands & that all would experience full healing.
