The aftermath of the latest homicide resonates across the metro as Kansas City's homicide count continues to outpace last year's record breaking total.
At this time last year there were only 49 murders. The count has spiked to 52 as the weather warms up and shooting reports increase.
More deets about the shooting . . .
At about 11:30 p.m. Friday, police were around 8th and Olive to investigate the sound of gunfire. While in the area, officers found two victims suffering from gunshot wounds.
Both victims are teens; they were shot just outside their apartment, and both victims died from their injuries.
The investigation is underway, but initial information indicates that there was some sort of domestic incident that led to the shooting after both victims had just left Ramadan services.
Twitter reaction from Mayor Lucas:
Links . . .
Fox4: Two teens were killed Friday night after a shooting in Kansas City, police say.
KCTV5: Two juveniles shot and killed outside their home near 8th and Olive
Northeast News: Police investigate double homicide near 8th and Olive

The mayor is great for twitter reactions but hasn't really done much about stopping the violence.

DeleteAny suggestions or must complaints from you?
Yeah any sage advice from the chucklowe crowd?
DeleteHow about supporting a police crackdown on these assholes? Not giving into domestic terrorists aka BLM, East Side Fake Fat Ass Rev's for starters.
DeletePlease give me your suggestions Mensa members??
This is why we need gun control.
ReplyDeleteDamn does Muslim version of church really not let out till almost 11:30pm?
ReplyDeleteThey have different times to fit people's schedules. I'm not muslim or anything, but, when I was waiting tables at at 7/24 restaurant, they'd be coming in right before sunrise saying they had to get their food QUICKLY! No eating after sunrise till sunset, or drinking, or smoking nothing! I couldn't do without my pop and coffee ALL day! Jeeez!
DeleteThese kids were too young to be going to the late night service . Prayers to the families
The violence in Kansas City is much like a nuclear meltdown. We are experiencing a fallout from decades of mismanagement on the state level by ineffectual demagogues
ReplyDelete^^^ during Ramadan yes. They fast all day and pray most of the night. Their ceremonies end with a meal that usually lasts hours.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the suspect description so we can be on the lookout?
ReplyDeleteSome commenter always references Mogadishu of the Plains...they are right.
ReplyDelete^^^
ReplyDeleteAbout the suspect description. They said it was domestic so I'm guessing they might have someone in custody.
Meanwhile, in the major leagues, Baltimore has 100 murders and Chicago has 200, up to the minute. Philadelphia has 169 and even though we are on record pace for murders, St Louis is smoking us with 64, Our hood rats are incredibly weak
ReplyDeleteRam it on in during Ramadan.
^^ cop comment wants to redirect criticism against KCPD.
DeleteLocal control is coming. Get ready. I'm scared if the cops are scared.
Let me guess? You a felon?
DeleteThe mayor is a poor actor and a race baiter. He posted this on his page and his verbiage made it seem like something it wasn't. His followers eagerly grasp onto the slightest insinuation that white people are at fault. It's a game liberals love to play and the mayor is piss poor at it just like he is everything else. Domestic means family, but the mayor and his followers conveniently ignore this piece of the story.

ReplyDeleteI wish you would look how stupid Quinton Lucas is. Of course everyone should be safe but the problem is he is acting like a citizen and not the mayor. Get off of your ass Lucas and do something your city is crime infested, and learn how to communicate with people with an intelligent comment something like we are not going to tolerate this in our city and then assure the people your are going to find and punish the criminals. Gee you are so stupid Lucas.
I bet they weren't mearing masks. Masks save lives!
ReplyDeleteGuns don’t shoot themselves. Only criminals with guns shoot people. Do something about the criminals.
ReplyDeletePeople Control
DeleteBye bye Muzzies!
ReplyDeleteYour response is pathetic Quinton. Do better.
ReplyDelete8th and olive is the ghetto trash projects, if you’re living there than you are on your last chance of ever renting section ape again. Worst of the worst. Kolored peeps just don’t want to be civilized.
ReplyDeleteAnd the mayor still won’t go to his people and tell them to stop, he always talks out the side of his mouth because he’s to chicken shit to address the criminal hood rat community.
ReplyDeleteStop and frisk, plus a "broken windows" policy, would send the murder rate plummeting.
ReplyDeleteOf course, to do that, you would have to admit that 50% off all homicides are committed by about 2% of the black male population (13% is total black, half are male, and probably half or more of those never commit a crime).
never gonna happen . . . goes against the liberal narrative and would shut down the gusher of money that arises from race hustling.
There's no money to be made in talking about black-on-black crime. The scum of the Earth eagerly await the next police shooting of a black person by a white officer. That helps the race-baiting politicians and "charity/spiritual" leaders buy their fifth mansions and third yachts. Until then, don't both them with these trivial killings.
ReplyDeleteIf it was domestic what does it have to do with going to religious services?.... ramalama dingdong!
ReplyDeleteSincere condolences to the families. God Bless K.C.P.D. and K.C.F.D.
ReplyDeleteThe senseless murder of 2 more future Harvard doctors,.
ReplyDeleteKansas City loses more future Harvard honor students in a week than the rest of the country in one day.
ReplyDeleteSo, should be assume it was those damn old white conservatives once again ? It will be by the time CNN, MSNBC and the KC star get ahold of it.
ReplyDeleteMSNBC said the whole black on black murder problem is liberal white americas fault! They may be on to something there! Hahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteWe don't have a problem with blacks murdering blacks. We support it and wish they would triple their efforts.
ReplyDeleteThe Jenkums community is now in morning.
ReplyDeleteAnother Ramadan related death.
ReplyDeleteHate crime against the blacks anyone?
ReplyDeleteThe article said it was likely domestic meaning there own family did it. So are you saying they hate crimes themselves?
