(update - 15th Feb) KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The mass shooting that unfolded amid throngs of people at the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl celebration appeared to stem from a dispute between several people, authorities said Thursday.
Police Chief Stacey Graves said that the 22 people injured in the shooting ranged between the ages of 8 and 47 years old, half of whom were under the age of 16. A mother of two was also killed.
Sadly, it seems any mass gathering is a potential target for this kind of bullshit. Regardless of the number of law enforcement in the area, it only takes seconds to mag dump pretty much any firearm. I’d be interested to know if the victims were complete bystanders or if this was the result of some sort of altercation.
