KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A New Hampshire mother and daughter who attended the Chiefs’ Super Bowl parade in Kansas City Wednesday recounted the horrific scene after a deadly shooting left 22 people injured, eight of them being children, and at least one person dead.
“We’re from Kansas City, but we flew in Tuesday from New Hampshire just for the parade,” said Dana Brady. “We were headed back to the direction where the Uber had dropped us off, when all of a sudden people started crushing forward. Everybody started running. There was screaming. We didn’t know what was happening. But this day and age when people run, you run.”
Brady and her daughter were among the hundreds of thousands running for cover after gunfire broke out around Union Station at the end of the Super Bowl parade.
“Everybody started jumping the rails and pushing everybody over. We got inside and we thought that, ok, it’s calm now. We’re inside, we’ll be safe,” said Brady. “I told my daughter, let’s just sit down for a minute in here and breathe because we don’t have a car. We don’t even know where to go. And about that time people started running again.”
Kansas City Police Chief Stacey Graves said in a news conference that two armed men had been taken into custody as fans were urged to exit the area as quickly as possible.
“I’m angry at what happened today. The people who came to this celebration should expect a safe environment.” Graves said.
Boston has had its fair share of parades or ‘rolling rallies’ in recent years. It’s a concept Dan Linskey helped execute after a Red Sox World Series win, while he was on command staff for the Boston Police Department.
“We cant possibly have 2 million people in city hall plaza without people crushing each other and our ability to keep them safe – we decided to spread that crowd density out over a period of blocks and by doing so we were able to keep people safer in that manner,” said Linskey.
He says it’s always a shame to have something like this happen especially when security is so high.
“We don’t know exactly what the motivation was behind this but someone engaged in violence and has taken a life and injured others, so they have every right to be outraged, we all should be outraged,” said Linskey.
This is still an active and ongoing investigation, officials say.
President Joe Biden has been briefed on the shooting in Kansas City and will continue to receive updates, a White House spokesperson said. White House officials have been in touch with state and local leaders, and federal law enforcement is on the scene supporting local law enforcement.
Areas that had been filled with crowds were empty after the shooting, with police and firefighters standing and talking behind an area restricted by yellow tape.

I grew up in a landlocked state. We didn’t have beaches. I was 25 before I went to a beach with actual sand. So, if you’ve ever tried building a sandcastle at the beach, you already know how hard it is to keep the thing standing for more than 10 minutes.
Now imagine turning a giant pile of sand into a masterpiece that looks like it belongs in an art museum.
That’s exactly what’s about to happen as the 26th Annual Hampton Beach Master Sand Sculpting Classic returns June 18-20, 2026. The event is one of the biggest summer attractions on the Seacoast and brings some of the best sand sculptors in the world to New Hampshire. That’s pretty amazing. These artists and their creations are amazing.

The competition takes place right on Hampton Beach, where artists transform roughly 200 tons of imported sand into jaw-dropping sculptures that can tower over visitors. What starts as giant piles of sand quickly turns into detailed works of art featuring people, animals, fantasy scenes, and creations that honestly make you wonder how it’s even possible.

The event has become a summer tradition for thousands of visitors who come to watch the artists work, vote for their favorites, and see the finished sculptures up close. Even after the competition ends, the sculptures remain on display for additional viewing.

If you’re planning a Hampton Beach day trip this summer, this is one of the best weekends to go. Between the beach, boardwalk, arcades, fried dough, and incredible sand art, there’s plenty to keep everyone entertained.
What’s the coolest thing you’ve ever built in the sand?
For most of us, it’s probably a lopsided sandcastle that got wiped out by the tide. But maybe you were one of those kids who built an entire fortress complete with a moat.

The situation came to the attention of Newington, New Hampshire Police when they were called to an Olive Garden restaurant on Saturday morning by a Pennsylvania woman who told authorities her daughter was being held against her will.
New Hampshire Police Order Residents to Shelter in Place
When the police learned the suspect had firearms, a shelter-in-place order was enacted in the area surrounding the restaurant.
New Hampshire officers encountered the woman when she ran out of the restaurant and told them she wanted to file an emergency restraining order against Oullet.
KRCG-TV reports the police allegedly saw cigarette burns on her legs.
Scary Road Trip from Maine to New Hampshire Involved an Alleged Forced Marriage
The story that followed Ouellet’s arrest is bizarre and frightening.
Police say he allegedly pointed a gun at the woman while she was driving on Friday, telling her they were being followed by a satanic cult.
The victim told the police that Oulett allegedly forced her to marry him, and then cut her hand when they were in Kittery, Maine, as part of a satanic ritual.
According to WMUR-TV, investigators found a satanic bible, a sweatshirt, and a bag inside Ouellet’s vehicle.
Ouellet denied in court the allegations against him, stating that he would never force the woman into marriage, or harm her in any way.
Prosecutors say Ouellet has a criminal history of domestic violence and driving while intoxicated.
