Video Shows Shots Fired, Crowd Parting During Chiefs Parade Shooting

Drone footage shows a massive crowd at the Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl LVIII victory parade quickly parting after shots were fired.

The clip, which was shared to KCTV5 by a viewer, shows the corner of Pershing and Kessler in the Union Station area of downtown Kansas City. Three people arrested in relation to the shooting, which resulted in the death of Lisa Lopez-Galvin, as well as 23 others being injured.

Children's Mercy Hospital confirmed to KCTV5 that it was treating 12 patients, including 11 children who ranged from 6 to 15, all of whom were expected to recover.

The Chiefs issued a statement in response to the incident on their official website and social media accounts Wednesday.

"We are truly saddened by the senseless act of violence that occurred outside of Union Station at the conclusion of today's parade and rally," the Chiefs said. "Our hearts go out to the victims, their families, and all of Kansas City.

"We are in close communication with the Mayor's office as well as the Kansas City Police Department.

"At this time, we have confirmed that all of our players, coaches, staff and their families are safe and accounted for.

"We thank the local law enforcement officers and first responders who were on-scene to assist."

A video shared online showed police responding to an active shooter situation at Union Station, where the parade concluded.

Patrons were asked to leave the area at Union Station immediately and avoid the parking garage so victims can receive treatment.

The Chiefs were celebrating their third Super Bowl victory in the past five years days after defeating the San Francisco 49ers, 25-22, in overtime during Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday (February 11), having previously defeated San Francisco, 31-20, in Super Bowl LIV. Kansas City is also the first team since the New England Patriots in 2005 to repeat as Super Bowl champions and the ninth in NFL history.
