- Two gunmen have been detained after multiple people were shot at the Kansas City Chiefs Superbowl parade
The Kansas City Chiefs Superbowl parade has descended into chaos as at least ten people have been wounded in a shooting in the city’s Union Station.
Stars Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes had just left the stage when the shots rang out, spreading panic among the crowd of up to one million people.
Two gunmen have been detained, according to the police department, but they are yet to be named. A man in a red hoodie was pictured being arrested, although it is unclear if he was one of those involved in the shooting.
Reports indicate up to 10 people may have been injured, with multiple children reportedly rushed to nearby Children’s Mercy Hospital.
Officers are now evacuating the streets surrounding the train station where up to one million people had gathered to celebrate the win.
Fans were seen scrambling from the scene, with several people wheeled away in stretchers.
Police said they were releasing all of those inside Union Square around 15 minutes after the shooting unfolded.
