The spate of rising local violence has hit this town's premiere entertainment district once again and during it's most celebrated time of year when the iconic lighting display attracts tourists from around the world.
To wit . . .
SHOTS FIRED ON THE PLAZA TONIGHT AND YOUNGSTER INJURED!!!
Deets:
Off duty officers in the area reported hearing shots fired just before 6:30 p.m. Reports were also being received by 911 callers of a shooting at 47th and Jefferson, near the parking garages.
KCPD said they found one female victim who appeared to have been shot while inside a vehicle. Her injuries are reported to be non-life threatening.
Police said they have very little suspect information at this time and the circumstances of what led up to the shooting are still under investigation.
Authorities have blocked off an area where the shooting occurred while they investigate. Police say it is not believed there is still an active threat to the public.

So we've still got some major problems on the plaza.
ReplyDeleteI think moving the streetcar down here is only going to make things worse. Seems like a lot of businesses have left because of the violence. Usually it's not so bad for Christmas.
Damn Shame.
Nordstrom's is moving here?
DeleteWhatever.
Better title for ya T: Christmas in Kansas City = shooting.
DeleteThere, fixed if for you.

ReplyDeleteWhere’s gopher boi now?
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the news will report it was a "teen" that did it. "Teen" being code for black person. They are like termites and ruin everything.
ReplyDeletePass the donuts and a glass of city tap water.
ReplyDeleteANOTHER shooting on the plaza. Who wants to guess what the shooter description is? Cmon...be honest.
ReplyDeleteDamn Amish again.
DeleteA correct guess gets you labeled as a racist
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable to think that this is what the Plaza has regressed to. Sad.
ReplyDeleteThis is no longer the classy destination shopping experience of your Grandpappy's generation.
ReplyDeleteEntropy is everywhere, the center can no longer hold.
The cracks are showing in what once was a great nation.
The Plaza is a shithole, and KCPD can do nothing to stop them.
ReplyDeleteKilla City in for the Win in 2018.
ReplyDeletethe plaza is toast just like westport 18th and vine the city is not safe even the northland and lees summit is starting the decline because of one thjng blacks blacks i sayis it the kansas side is also statring to slip northewesr joco is going minorityu
ReplyDeleteIt’s a very very very sad situation.
ReplyDeleteI could never go to this very bad situatational shopping place.
It’s best to just put your money in upscale Johnson County and avoid the very very very high crime chances.
As Johnson County plans and works with putting a new Johnson County International Airport in- look for KC to go out of business and declaring bankruptcy or charging a 3% Earnings tax.
It’s just so sad that leadership has no answers ....that work. Murder after murder after shooting after robbery...it’s just so very very sad.
It’s nice to feel so very very safe in Kansas.
Kansas City has a large black population and when you have that you have excessive amounts of crime that's fact. You all can blame sly James too. He's the one that caters to them. They are uneducated people and that will never change. To try and live together with them has proven to be a failure. Sad for the very few blacks that try life for them is trashed by the majority who want to act like wild animals.
ReplyDeleteI only go to Plaza to eat at a couple places, then high tale it back home. What else is there? I'm not going to buy overpriced Jew diamonds from Tivols.
ReplyDeleteSince this happened on the Plaza Slie is not concerned about it since the shooting is far away from downtown.
ReplyDeleteYall are a bunch of pussies. Leave KCMO to the grown ups, you suburban and exurb pussy boys. Hahaha
ReplyDelete6:41, call your OB-GYN and schedule an appointment. Something is wrong with your pussy and it's making you hysterical.
ReplyDeleteSly James has been a complete failure as a Mayor. Crime being the number 1 issue in KC has been unaddressed. Adding a City paid for Grocery in the Inner city did nothing to lessen the crime waive.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing that will address KC crime is the addition of officers on the street.
Hood rats will cause plaza to be another banister mall
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the new Plaz' ownerships feels any buyers remorse?
ReplyDeleteI GOT IT!!!
ReplyDeleteThe solution to all of this is to take guns away from white people!!!
9:38 that’s funny right there! We wouldn’t want the blacks to feel uncomfortable and all! Hahahahaha!
ReplyDelete8:03 killa shitty is the bannister mall now, all they did was spread out once they shut it down, especially since petersucker doesn’t prosecute blacks ever.
Section ape is ruining the entire city.
