There's been a mass shooting at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl victory parade.

Police said one person died and 22 people suffered gunshot wounds in a shooting Wednesday afternoon just after the Chiefs parade and rally ended at Union Station.

Children's Mercy Hospital confirmed it was treating 12 patients, 11 of whom were children. The hospital stated that nine of those patients have gunshot wounds.

University Health Truman Medical Center officials said it was treating eight gunshot victims, two of whom are in critical condition. Four other people were treated for non-gunshot injuries.

The Kansas City Police Department stated that three armed people were taken into custody for more investigation.

Police told those in attendance to evacuate the area after shots were fired west of Union Station, where the parade finished. Officials cleared the area and released everyone inside Union Station, KCPD said in a statement.

That will never ever happen…they should of course, but no chance.
