Details
During the celebration of the victory of the local team "Kansas City Chiefs" in the U.S. championship in American Football, according to the police, at least 22 people were injured, another one died.
The fact is that right during the celebration, which gathered up to a million people, an unknown person began shooting at the crowd. The incident occurred near the center of Kansas City, near the city station.
A local radio station reported that one of the presenters, Lisa Lopez, was killed. Eight more people are in serious condition in hospitals, medics are treating them. At least nine minors are among the injured, according to police.
Police officers have three suspects in custody. It is still unclear who exactly shot at passersby, but it is known that one of the suspects had a weapon seized. Law enforcers are still interrogating the detainees and trying to find out the motive of the attacker.
