*** METRO GUNS KILL AT LEAST ONE- LEAVE 2 OTHERS IN VERY CRITICAL AND SERIOUS CONDITION ****** At least 2 of the three lead-poisoned people are reported to be males- two of the incidents reported as "possibly self-inflicted."
The dead GSW recipient was found in a Downtown KC-MO residential structure just before 1 am Saturday morning. An initial indication from police detectives is this gunshot was "possibly self-inflicted. "
Just before the Downtown call- KC-KS agencies responded to another "possibly self-inflicted" shooting call in the area of 49th and Leavenworth Road. That young male with a gunshot to the temple was in very bad shape when taken to an area trauma center.
The last incident was in southern Blue Springs-MO off of Missouri-7 highway- a man in his 40's shot in the back- and initially reported to be "accidental." That man's injuries were serious to critical.
All 3 incidents have been or are being investigated.
