On MLK Monday the Kansas City homicide crisis continues as local violence plagues cramped living quarters in the Southeast part of KCMO.
Here's the damage:
Officers responded to a deadly shooting at an apartment complex located in the 5300 block of Oak Leaf Drive Monday afternoon around 2:45. When police arrived on the scene, they found a man located outside an apartment building, he was pronounced dead a short time later.
Investigators are still on the scene and ask anyone with information to call the TIPS Hotline at 816-474-8477.
The suspect is still at large. Again, this is the 6th KCMO murder so far compared to 5 at this time last year and 7 the year before that . . .

No peace in the hood. Sad, these folks should've been attending a prayer service today and maybe then they could've stayed out of trouble.
ReplyDeleteA street name might fix this.
DeleteBut I thought President Trump was supposed to stop the violence? I guess that was just another empty promise as well.

ReplyDeleteHow in the hell can Trump stop something like this ? How can anyone stop an idiot from shooting someone other than if they are there ?
ReplyDeleteMany
Lame
Killings
Not to mention, where are all the Dim-revered programs like Aim for Peace, Nova, Mothers in Charge, etc? They should have a much more vested interest in the KC homicide rate than Trump since its in their own backyard.
DeleteWhat color of hoodie was the suspect wearing?
ReplyDeleteDid Slie mention the blissful state of public saftey in his State of the City speech yesterday?
ReplyDeleteHe's pissed at the Star today crime is an afterthought.

I’m disappointed the The Kansas City Star made the erroneous assumption I was referring to labor unions in yesterday’s remarks. Do I get fired up about shady political gamesmanship happening behind the scenes of the new KCI project? Yes. Do I think trade unions are to blame? Absolutely not. It’s skilled union workers who will be building the future of the new KCI, from the moment ground is broken to the day that first flight takes off.
He told them in confidence and they weren’t supposed to tell anyone, oopsie!
ReplyDeleteWhere do I get my Clay Chastain yard sign?
ReplyDeleteBad timing for he victim's family.
ReplyDeleteIt was MLK Day and Mothers in Charge and all the other fake "anti-crime" nonprofit hacks were chasing their gigs on local television news.
Self-promotion is what they're really best at.
And the local television "reporters" never fail to impress.
It never changes.
