Burning-out on all the senseless gunfire and violence in this town- it pains me to report the following...
At 1:03 am Sunday morning- East Zone KC-MO Police officers were sent on the call of a shooting at the Traveler's Inn motel at 6006 East 31st Street (I-70 & 31st St.) on KC's East Side.
The dispatcher told the responding officers that the motel's front desk clerk had been shot.
A fire department paramedic unit transported a 25-year-old female who had been shot in the head to a local hospital.
She was in very critical condition- as the EMS unit reported they were doing CPR on their patient.
The woman later died at Truman Medical Center-Hospital Hill.
The low-lifes committing this crime were reported to be two black males with clothing descriptions- and the 2 thugs reportedly ran westbound from the motel.
Later Sunday- KC-MO Police identified the slain motel clerk as "24-year-old Kassandra S. Peters of Kansas City MO..
Still outraged over the senseless killing of Raytown resident Harry Stone two weeks ago- through my anger and heavy heart I solemnly offer condolences to the family and friends of Ms. Peters- and hope their killer(s) are brought to justice and rot in prison.
Little more than thirty minutes earlier- at 12:28 am- a 19-year-old male was shot in the back at 1305 East Armour Road in Midtown.
The victim appeared to be paralyzed from the neck down- according to the KC-MO paramedic report to a hospital- but otherwise in not immediately life-threatening condition.
Police believed they had the suspect- a black male wearing a red shirt- in custody shortly after Center Zone officers arrived on that scene.
At least police managed to catch this suspect early on- whether the suspect is actually CONVICTED for his crime relies solely on our possibly paralyzed victim.
