Once again we're reminded that the quotient of local violence escalates even during Coronavirus lockdown.
Here's a roundup of the latest killing as KCMO makes little progress in controlling an epidemic of deadly gunfire that has claimed more people locally than the pandemic. So far . . .
Info from the scene:
Police responded to the shooting around 11 p.m. near 53rd Terrace and Cleveland Avenue. When officers arrived on scene they located one person deceased and another injured from a shooting.
The victim that was injured was taken to a hospital where they are listed in critical condition.
No suspects have been taken into custody at this time as detectives investigate what led to the shooting.

keep a social distance from gangs and drugs and you'll be okay.
ReplyDeleteThat would be nice but it's not correct. Gangs and violence regularly go looking for victims. The shootings aren't indiscriminate and not totally random either.
Delete^^^^ +1
DeleteAt least one hoodrat survived to seek revenge and that guarantee’s more shootings in the future. It’s what those people do.
ReplyDeleteI've read enough politics and this blog to know that EVERYBODY is out there looking for revenge.
DeleteNot really,no.
DeleteDid Petersucker show up to this crime scene like she promised she would to all of them? How about all those taxpayer funded crime stopper programs like mothers in charge and my personal favorite aim for the heart? Did what’s his name show up with his crime fighting drone?
ReplyDeleteTKC Diaper Squad-mount up! We have a reason for living! This is our opportunity to pretend to care and be the racists we’ve always been! Our lives have meaning again.
ReplyDeleteChicago has 8 million people
ReplyDeleteBaltimore is 3 hours or less from Washington Dc,NYC,Philly and is on a huge drug distribution route along the entire East Coast so once again your point is mute as fuck!
Chicago only has 6.7 homicides per thousand.
ReplyDeleteKansas City has almost double that.
For the first time in decades it looks like Kansas City will surpass St.Louis in total homicides.
Don’t get too excited, they are still the reigning king per capita. This year they are still killing 15 per thousand per capita.
Baltimore is set to pass them though, at 17 per thousand.
The council and mayor has failed to follow through with empty promises. The Chief is over his head. Forte’ was roasted daily for numbers not this bad. The police board is a rubber stamp. Don’t think so? Watch this week’s meeting, live-streamed. If you sucked as bad as Smith did you wouldn’t have a job.
The silence from KCPD HQ is deafening
DeleteStop and frisk works, but is racissssssssst! So, can't do that.
