KMBC: Kansas City police investigating homicide in 5000 block of Manchester

KSHB: Man shot to death inside home on Manchester Avenue, KCPD says

Deets:

One man was found inside the home with a gunshot wound. The man was transported to an area hospital, where he was initially listed in critical condition. He later died from his injuries, Anyone with information in the shooting is asked to call the KCPD Homicide Unit at 816-234-5043 or the TIPS Hotline at 816-474-8477 (TIPS). A reward of up to $25,000 is available for information leading to an arrest.

Now here's the big picture according to KCPD stats . . .

KANSAS CITY MURDER #135 BOOSTS THE HOMICIDE COUNT PACE AHEAD OF THE 26 YEAR RECORD FOR LOCAL KILLING!!!

The highest KCMO total for murders was set back in 1993, at the height of killings fueled by crack cocaine and gangs.

In 2017 the murder count nearly broke the record with 151 murders documented.

It deserves to be mentioned that since that time the murder counting methodology has been switched up to comply with FBI crime reporting standards.

At this date on the calendar back in 2017 KCMO counted only 133 killings . . . So we're two victims ahead of that pace. Meanwhile, local streets become increasingly dangerous and the rate of killing typically ramps up as the holidays approach given more opportunities for domestic drama and increased end-of-year financial pressure.

  1. Okay, so in 1993 they blame the crack epidemic and gangs for the murders but no idea what the cause is in 2017?

    That's a bit odd.

    1. The drug junkies are just as bad if not worse and now they've got guns.

      Good luck everybody!

    2. Sure the mexican cartels need to take the blame and get locked up but now big pharma is in on the game and getting a ton of money to sell their drugs. Only this year are they starting to see some resistance.

  2. So I guess none of these folks are obeying the current gun laws. I'm sure that new ones will totally convince them to put down their weapons.

    But I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it.

  7. We need a strong effort by our hoodrats to set the record. Baltimore has 311 murders. I know our hoodrats are weak by comparison but they are still capable of string a new record.

  8. 12:39 I agree, they’re not trying hard enough, there’s still plenty of hoodrats to shoot, they’re just being lazy

  9. All I know is the fake, fat Black Revs told everybody in 2012 that tearing down an entire 24acres of residential houses (to relocate East Patrol) was needed to bring an end to this murderous rampage we now have before us. Wonder if these thugs will ever go after these fraudsters calling themselves clergy members and misrepresenting their representation of the eastside. If they did, it would be a two for one win on crime in Kansas City because they both currently target innocent, unsuspecting victims.

  11. What a sad state of affairs Cops only answer radio calls do no police work for fear of complaints, murders, shootings and robberies rampant with no courage on the commanders part to change the status quo and their only worry is the next promotion. Had more faith in the new Chief than what he has shown to change things, word was he's a "Crime Fighter" That was then and now riding around with a coke head Mayor...pitiful.

  12. As long as no one has the guts to even honestly identify the problem and its perpetrators, KCMO will continue to have 145+ homicides every year, year after year for the foreseeable future.
    That's almost HALF the number of murders as New York City, a city with a population 17 times the size of KCMO.
    Difficult problem?
    Yes.
    Complicated?
    No.
    Pitiful.

  13. Everyone knows EXACTLY what the root cause of this is. It's just that nobody can say it because its......wait for it, RACIST.

  14. To drive home the point as to the main source of the GUN/MURDER crisis in KC:

    For a New Year's Eve Fireworks Celebration this year, at the finale:
    (1) Fire off one aerial firework for every NON Black shooter/murder perpetrator for the year.
    (2) Fire off one aerial firework for every Black shooter/murder perpetrator for the year.

    Note: Add one firework for every illegal gun used.

    #2 Should be sufficient for a fantastic grand finale, that would rival any July 4th or New Year major production.

  16. Maybe the Black church can put more crosses for murder victims the church failed to reach. The Black church harbors criminals but tries to profit by using media to pretend they care all these people died on Kansas City streets, while the church employs the perpetrators. The Black church, like gangs, the police, manufacture crime. And as nosy as Black churchgoers are, they never seem to have witnessed much of anything, even when they had a front row seat to the violence.

    I will keep everyone in thought and prayer.
