Here's the latest indication that rising violence in the region and across the nation travels more quickly than most news watchers can imagine.
The local connection . . .
"A call from the Kansas City, Missouri Police Department informed Leavenworth, Kansas investigators that a shooting victim arrived at Children’s Mercy Hospital in a black Volkswagon Jetta sedan.
"The victim, a 12-year-old boy, was pronounced dead at the hospital. During the investigation, detectives obtained descriptions of the three suspects and their vehicle.
"The vehicle was located at a home in the 200 block of South 12th Street in Leavenworth. Officers made contact with the occupants at the home and three suspects were detained."

Right, don't take him to the nearest hospital, take him to a hospital named 'children's' since he is a child - what a bunch of dumbasses.
ReplyDelete^^^^^^^
ReplyDeleteRight, go figure. I guess they thought if they took him to a Hospital far away they wouldn't be caught and to think he could have survived.
Agree with both comments above.
ReplyDeleteThoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeletePrayers for what? Not the kid, he's dead.
ReplyDelete3 more Democrat lives oppressed by right wing criminal "justice"!
ReplyDeleteEnd policing now! DNC policy
So does KC or Leavenworth get the credit for this one?
ReplyDeleteAwww, his homies cared enough to transport his corpse to CMH, instead of dumping it along the interstate.
ReplyDeleteA hood story with a happy ending.
To get to Children’s Mercy, about forty minutes away, they had to drive directly by a hospital on the same street as shooting. About a one minute drive. Geniuses.
