Two minors charged in connection with Kansas City Chiefs parade shooting
Two minors have been charged with gun-related offenses in connection to the Kansas City mass shooting earlier this week.
The 16th Judicial Circuit Court of Missouri announced the charges in a statement on Friday.
“Two juveniles were charged on Thursday, February 15, 2024, by the Office of the Juvenile Officer related to the incident at the Chiefs’ rally on February 14, 2024,” the court said.

“The juveniles are currently detained in secure detention at the Juvenile Detention Center on gun related and resisting arrest charges,” the court continued in the Friday statement.
Gunshots rang out during the Chiefs’ victory parade at about 2 p.m. local time near the Union Station parking garage in Kansas City, killing one woman and injuring 22 others. The female victim has been identified as Lisa Lopez-Galvan, a mother of two and local radio DJ.
At least eleven children were wounded during the shooting, but were expected to recover as of Wednesday night. Nine of them were shot, while two sustained other injuries.

The Friday statement continued, “It is anticipated that additional charges are expected in the future as the investigation by the Kansas City Police Department continues.”
The hearings will be not open to the public due to the age of those charged, in accordance with Missouri law.
Authorities said at a press conference on Thursday that “the relationship between the subjects involved is still under investigation” but that there is no evidence of links to terrorism.
Authorities also previously noted that despite initial reports speculating that the gunfire was erupting in multiple locations, this is no longer the belief of investigators and the violence was “mostly on the West side of Union Station.”

Federal agents shoot man in the leg in Minneapolis sparking protests
Federal agents were conducting a “targeted” traffic stop when the Venezuelan national attempted to flee the scene, according to DHS.
Tensions over Immigration and Customs Enforcement actions continued to surge in Minneapolis after a federal officer shot a person in the leg on Jan. 14, photos and videos from the city showed.
A man, whom the Department of Homeland Security said is a Venezuelan national living in the United States without authorization, was shot in the leg by a federal officer, a week after an ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good.
In the latest incident, DHS said the man drove away during a “targeted traffic stop” and crashed into a parked vehicle before taking off on foot around 6:50 p.m. local time. After one of the federal officers attempted to apprehend the man, two other people arrived from a nearby apartment, and all three started attacking the officer, DHS claimed.
After Good’s death, protests erupted in Minneapolis amid the immigration enforcement surge ordered by President Donald Trump.
Photos and videos from the city after the latest shooting showed troves of protesters and federal officers alike taking to the streets as tear gas clouded the air.

INDIANAPOLIS — Indianapolis City-County Councilor Vop Osili announced his candidacy for mayor Thursday, becoming the first person to officially enter the 2027 race.
Osili, a Democrat who served as council president for eight years, surprised some observers in December when he announced he would not seek re-election in the position.
The fifth-generation Indianapolis resident is positioning his campaign around neighborhood-focused governance and his track record of bipartisan problem-solving during his 14-year tenure on the council.
“This campaign isn’t about ideology or political labels,” Osili said in his announcement. “It’s about whether city government is delivering the basics people rely on every day.”
Osili and Mayor Joe Hogsett have worked closely together during Hogsett’s tenure, with Osili often serving as a key ally on council initiatives.
During his time as council president, Osili championed affordable housing expansion, helped launch the city’s first microloan program for small businesses, and led efforts to remove criminal history questions from initial city job applications.
No other candidates have formally announced their intentions to run for mayor.
Osili plans to hold neighborhood town halls across Indianapolis in the coming weeks to gather input from residents about campaign priorities.
