A late night workout session ended in a spate of gunfire through a shopping mall parking lot and left one man dead at the scene.
Witnesses report at least TWO-DOZEN rounds of gunfire that left a bullet hole in nearby gymn window.
Description:
The shooting happened around 9:45 p.m. outside the Genesis Health Club at Ward Parkway shopping center.
Police said a man came out of the gym and a black man wearing a white t-shirt began firing at him. The man tried to run away, and the suspect chased after the man, continuing to shoot until he was hit.

"As soon as the first one started, I came out the door and started walking toward Ward Parkway Mall," a neighbor said. "I heard the gunshots going and I hear a guy screaming 'No! No! No! Don't do it! Don't do it!'"

KCTV5: Police found the victim in the parking lot between the PetSmart and Old Navy stores on the east side of the mall.
The 44th homicide so far this year matches last year's historic homicide count that totaled nearly 150 - A number that nearly matches the all-time KCMO murder record.
Developing . . .
Some of the reports say at least 30 gun shots.
ReplyDeleteWould hate to be stocking up at trader joes and have to deal with that craziness. You know some housewive probably crapped her pants messing with her cell phone in the parking lot and seeing that.
welcome to kc.
Half of the police force must have been out there last night. Glad to see the response and hope they catch the guy. There has to be tons of video in that parking lot, a really stupid place to kill someone. Glad that the bad guys aren't so smart.
Delete155 this year. Easy.
Delete30 shots to hit one target that you ambushed?
ReplyDeleteWTF?
KC criminals need gun training if only because they're likely to hit some innocent person by spraying an entire parking lot with gunfire over some personal dispute.
go4kc is gonna have to change the tourist signs to 24,999,956! Lmao!!!
ReplyDeleteI wish more blacks would heed the naacp’s warnings and get out of Missouri, crime would drop to less than 10%!
ReplyDeleteThe coloreds ruined everything
ReplyDeleteHistory will reveal that despite naming every street and airport in the world after mlk, the late 20th century and the 21st century was destroyed by the colored plague
ReplyDeleteHe wanted the mans shoes!
ReplyDeleteToo much exercise is not good for you.
ReplyDeleteSo is this another black-on-white hate crime or a black-on-black murder? Cue the douche on this board more offended by words than murders.
ReplyDelete"The 44th homicide so far this year matches last year's historic homicide count that totaled nearly 150 - A number that nearly matches the all-time KCMO murder record."
ReplyDeleteWell, well, well. Did the new sheriff show up to the crime scene?
Wonder what he thinks of all this killing? especially of the young black men?
Where's the outrage towards these criminals and what their activities are doing to the neighborhoods in KC?
Hood rat kills gym rat.
ReplyDelete6:15 Tell that shit to white families of the dead, raped, wounded and assaulted victims. I'm sure it should go over really well.
ReplyDeleteIf the statement of facts offends you, than there are plenty of publications, cable news shows, newspapers, et al for you to find a safe space to enjoy your personal confirmation bias'. Here, the ugly truth of who commits violent crime is not suppressed by sanctimonious 'Thought Leaders' who enforce bizarre, Orwellian edicts under threat of social opprobrium, loss of income and a sentence served in the stocks for speaking the truth to the Progressive Powers that control the Megaphone in the 4th Estate, the Entertainment Industry, Academe and the Deep State.
Outrageously disproportionate African American criminality is, by a light year, the most corrosive and necrotic disease this country endures and it endures it, by way of attitudes exactly like yours, that obfuscates, makes excuses and suppresses the truth of that same African American criminality.
We are DEAD, in Black on White Hate Crimes on Indian Creek Trail that are now lost down the Progressive Rabbit hole and never to be spoken of.
162---118 to go
ReplyDeleteThe country also endures a disproportionate amount of generational welfare by most blacks who have neither the skills or willingness to work. They are bleeding the taxpayers who support them dry.

ReplyDeleteEntitlement mentality promoted by the Democrats that have run Jackson county for decades.
You can't even go to the gym in Kansas City. Now that's a damn shame!
ReplyDeleteI go to that shopping center all the time and never have a problem.
ReplyDeleteBut that's because I rigorously follow the Killer City Rule: Never ... ever ... set foot in Kansas City after dark. Because that's when it turns into one of the most murderous shitholes in the United States.
Always CCW
DeleteLet's see...guy waits for a target, ambushes him, chases him down and kills him. Seems personal. Drugs, money, or pussy is the motive.
ReplyDelete^^^ Exactly!
ReplyDeleteWell, I hope the guy shot dead was a hood rat gangster or drug dealer. If so, it's a win-win.
ReplyDeleteWow - the proximity of Ward Parkway Mall to Leawood, Prairie Village, etc. and the residents that shop here (i.e. Target, Trader Joes, etc.) is going to send up more red flags than the normal shooting in KCMO. Fortunately, this looks like it was a targeted shooting and not a random shooting or robbery. If the murder # gets up to 150, I wonder what % were targeted (i.e. criminals shooting other criminals) versus innocent by-standard/victim? I think we'd be surprised how much of this is criminal/criminal crime related to gangs, drugs, retribution for other shooting, etc.
ReplyDeleteThat's my Gym never felt unsafe* even at midnight) due to the fact there is security around always , and the parking is brightly lit .
ReplyDeleteVery sad
Do you still feel safe ?
DeleteWhy did they feel it was necessary to mention the race of the shooter. That is so racist.
ReplyDeleteIt matters. Prove a point. Blacks in KC are dangerous.
DeleteBlacks everywhere are dangerous.
DeleteIt took over 30 shots to hit the dude because the niggers hold the gun low and sideways to look like they are a gangster. Not the proper way to shoot a gun.
ReplyDeletePro Tip: If a black man is trying to shoot you with a gun your chances of getting away unscathed are good just run and zig and zag, black boy won't hit that.
I wonder why the nigger didn't just walk in and shoot him rather than waiting for him to walk out.
ReplyDeleteHe didnt have a membership card
Delete@5:31 Have you ever noticed how Go4KC is never on here about incidents like this bragging about all the great things the city is doing to try that will curtail violence of this type?
ReplyDeleteReality can't be dealt with from the likes of Go4KC just the spreading of fake numbers the supporting of illegal elections and overall glossing of a group pf politicians who have ignored the real needs of the residents.
^^No I have never noticed. Tell us exactly how you can curtail a murder? Just the most insightful stuff right there. Wow.
ReplyDelete^^^^^^ First they get losers like you off the street while stopping and doing gun and drug checks in the areas of higher crime incidents you brain dead dumbass. Many things could be done but are not. I would explain it to you but I can see you're too stupid to understand.
ReplyDeleteAnother reason to avoid the gym...
ReplyDeleteOh Please stupid dave, give us the list of many things that could be done but are not. I'm dying to hear them. Don't let a little thing like the Constitution get in the way either. Let's hear it!
ReplyDelete2:18 shut up you're embarrassing yourself. Back in my day we had the Constitution and we took fools like you and applied a little thing we called buffaloing up aside your head to make you behave while on the streets.
ReplyDeleteBTW where Dave say anything about listing anything. He just called out another fool like you who he recently if I remember right espoused for being a liar and fraud so to speak. Was that you? By chance are you the poster on every story spreading hate speaking like a toddler really GO4KC posting anonymously?
^^Hey Dave, you said "Many things could be done but are not". @2:18PM asked you to list those "many things". Can you understand that dave? Damn, I know you were clinically retarded, but I didn't know you were a full-on retard!
ReplyDelete3:30 you believe the Russians are behind all this don’t you, Or maybe our best president ever, President Trump, Or maybe greitens had something to do with it? We know it couldn’t have been you because you are too stoopid! Lmao!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, shut up sLIE
Excuse 3:30, he knows not what he does while seeing things nobody else does.
ReplyDeleteRemember when we had places that locked people like 3:30 up and kept them medicated?
No. I don’t dave. Your flashing back to your child again. Retard.
ReplyDeleteJust more TNB in KCMO.
ReplyDelete5:50 give it a break nobody is impressed at all.
