The Kansas City MetroRegion Overnight News and Weather Report - Saturday, August 25, 2007

** THREE HURT BAD BY GUNSHOT IN BOTH KANSAS CITYS **

*** The first incident occurred just after 12:45am in a trailer park in south KC-KS- in the 7200 block of Forest Drive..

Once there- paramedics and police found a 30-year-old woman who had been shot twice- once in the back of the head and once in one of her knees. Her condition was critical as she was sped to a trauma center.

The undescribed assailant left the trailer park in a red Chevy Blazer.

***The next shooting occurs around 2:30am- and the 2 victims show up at MAST-EMS's headquarters on Eastwood Trafficway. Both victim's injuries were life-threatening.

The victims drove up to a MAST unit who was going off shift and just pulling into their garage area on Ararat Drive. One critically-injured male was "shot 3 times" says a MAST paramedic while on their way to a trauma center.

No suspect information yet available- but police were investigating an apparent crime scene in the apartment complex south of Eastwood Trafficway.

<><><> OVERNIGHT WEATHER <><> <>

Skies were mostly cloudy - but dry- with low ceilings and scattered fog in some areas Saturday morning. Temperatures were comfortable to most- ranging from the low-middle 60's to the lower 70's in urban areas.

Once the low clouds ceilings rise- it looks like a pretty nice day- low winds- temps in the 80's- for the big airshow at Downtown Airport in KC-MO today.

Speaking of the airshow - Captain Greg and NBC41's SkyTracker will be on display- tell him Captain Spaulding said hello.

I can't believe there isn't any news coverage on this. We hear all sorts of shit on a mutilated dog, but two people are shot and NOTHING?

Tonight, drive up shooting victim at Research. Shooting on the East side. Tomorrow's top story: probably more shit about that dog.

Heh- maybe then you can since the small feeling of my frustration- nearly 20 years of providing the local news media stories they don't use in favor of bullshit.
