coloradobillsfan Posted February 14 Posted February 14 When I lived in KC, someone a few blocks from me was shot in the face for refusing to give a handout to a panhandler at a bus stop. On New Years, there were so many guns firing into the air it sounded like firecrackers. KC can be a pretty dangerous city. 1

BillsFanForever19 Posted February 14 Posted February 14 Damn. This really sucks. Terrible. And it will probably make cities and teams re-think doing these in the future. Would really suck to finally win one and there's no parade because of a couple psychos in KC. 1
Draconator Posted February 14 Posted February 14 The Kansas City TV Station I'm watching is saying 10 shot, 3 critical, one dead.

To be fair, you were the first one to "open the conversation to factors of the shooting" in this thread by mentioning mental illness. 1 5

Destruction of property and fires. When the Cuse won it in 2003, I remember heading over to Marshall St and there were riot police everywhere, since people’s idea of celebrating was climbing up light poles and setting things on fire. At least no one was getting shot at in that area though, to my knowledge.
JJGauna Posted February 14 Posted February 14 Prayers to those affected. We stand with the Chief fans on this one. 3 4

Billl Posted February 14 Posted February 14 I just got back from the parade with my family. Incredible day. Beautiful weather, and everyone was having a blast. Ridiculous that any dirtbag can walk into any place in America and start killing people, but here we are. We just have to make sure not to go crazy and actually do anything to prevent it from ever happening again. 7 1 2

Draconator Posted February 14 Posted February 14 Mayor and Police Chief press conference going on now. 10 to 15 people shot. One dead. Two people in custody. No reports of children shot. Still a fluid situation. 1

Would be somewhat surprising Until today I've never heard of a shooting at an NFL championship parade. Pray for the victims. Edited February 14 by LABILLBACKER 1 1

Draconator Posted February 14 Posted February 14 Police Chief just said there may be more than the two arrested that were involved in the shooting.
