Three Teens Among 6 Injured in Overnight Shootings

The two shootings early Sunday morning were in Kansas City KS and south Kansas City MO...


The KCK incident began just before 1 am at a dance at the National Guard Armory at 18th Street and Ridge Avenue..

Two carloads of mostly teens took off- one car containing three injured teens takes off toward the 1100 block of Ella.

The second vehicle is chased into KCM- where several are taken into custody around 3rd Street and Grand in the River Market area.

On Ella- 3 teen males are taken to a hospital- a 16-year-old and a 17-year-old have been shot- but their injuries are quite survivable.

The third male- also 16-years-old- was reportedly hurt by flying glass.

KCK Police had their hands full all morning with the expansive crime scene...


Then around 3:30 am- another shooting was reported in a house in the well-known Ruskin Heights subdivision.

Two of the people shot at the house took off- a 19-year-old male was found by emergency services about a block or two away.

The second departing victim- an unknown-age male- later arrived at a KC hospital.

A 23-year-old female who was shot in an arm was transported from the house where the shooting occurred.

Police were also investigating that incident.
