Sadly another shooting has occured.
This time at the parade celebrating the Kansas City Chief’s Super Bowl win.
As we have witnessed over the year, these shooters tend to like large crowds. And this comes on the heels of the other shooting in Texas on Sunday at a church that holds thousands of people.
So far it is known that 1 person was killed and there’s multipe injured, up to 10.
And “2” armed men have been detained. (Though the video shows 3)
The moment the gunfire began was caught on film:
