In this image made from video, a police vehicle passes with sirens near the scene of a shooting, Jan. 20, 2020, in Kansas City, Mo. Police say at least two people are dead and upwards of a dozen people may have been injured in a shooting outside a bar.
Earlier this week (Jan 20th 2020) a mass shooting occurred outside of 9ine Ultra Lounge in Kansas City Missouri that left 2 dead (including the gunman) and 15 severely injured. The night of the incident many people gathered in what was supposed to be a fun friendly gathering and celebratory event as the city's very own Kansas City Chiefs will be headed to this years super bowl.
A 25-year-old woman was killed and 15 people were injured outside a Kansas City, Missouri, nightclub on Sunday night when a gunman let loose a barrage of shots before he was gunned down by a security guard, authorities said on Monday.
Flagship Kansas City, MO recording artist, songwriter and hometown heroine Ms. Ke spoke out on the shooting that occurred.
It’s another sad day in Kansas City, MO. I woke to hear about a tragic event (a shooting at a club) where people were killed! This gun violence has to stop! My heart goes out to all the families who has lost someone by the cause of this violence! #mske
The violence has to stop indeed!
Kansas City Police Chief Richard Smith said his department was already on high alert when the shooting broke out with extra police assigned to overtime shifts in anticipation of Sunday's NFL game and the spontaneous celebrations that broke out afterward across the city. The Chiefs clinched a spot in the Super Bowl for the first time since 1970.
He said police officers had checked the parking lot outside the 9ine Ultra Lounge in the southeastern part of the city less than a minute before the shooting started at 11:27 p.m.
"This club had come up previously. We knew it was an issue at some other points of time in the past," Smith said, noting that a drive-by shooting occurred outside the club last week. "Officers had done a check of the parking lot and were less than a minute out when we received our first call. So we had just been there."
When officers returned to the club, they encountered a chaotic scene.
"We had hundreds of people fleeing both in cars and on foot," Smith said.
The alleged gunman, Jahron Swift, 29, of Kansas City, apparently had gotten into a confrontation inside the club and once outside, began shooting people who were in a line waiting to get in, Smith said.
Moving on to a more positive, uplifting note for Kansas City, Missouri, flagship Kansas City recording artist Ms. Ke will perform live on Feb. 11th and hold it down for her city at The Roxy 13410 W 62nd Terrace in Shawnee, KS.
