Authorities say two juveniles have been charged with crimes connected to the mass shooting at the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl rally.

Two juveniles were charged with crimes connected to the mass shooting at the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl rally, authorities said Friday, as the city tries to recover in the aftermath of the violence.

A news release from the Jackson County Family Court said the juveniles were charged Thursday and are being detained in the county’s Juvenile Detention Center “on gun-related and resisting arrest charges.” The release said it is “anticipated that additional charges are expected in the future as the investigation by the Kansas City Police Department continues.”

No further information was released. Juvenile court cases are largely kept private under Missouri law, and hearings are not open to the public.

Police initially detained three juveniles but released one who they determined wasn’t involved in the shooting. Police are looking for others who may have been involved and are calling for witnesses, victims and people with cellphone video of the violence to call a dedicated hotline.

    That’s just not true

    They come from a magical gun fairy that leaves handguns under the pillows of good little gang members.

    I personally have a gun, but if I walked out into my neighborhood and tried to get a gun from somewhere else, I’d have no idea how to

    This is a level of pro-gun idiocy I’ve genuinely never seen before. You don’t know where to get an illegal firearm so everything is fine?

    it takes guns away from law-abiding citizens

    Like the Ulvade shooter was 30 minutes before he killed someone. Sure, he had a history of sending death and rape threats and earned the nickname “school shooter” for abusing a dead cat, but here you are claiming “there is nothing wrong with our gun laws”, so I guess that’s the kind of person you’re cool selling semi-automatic weapons to.

    It’s not an isolated case either. Around 80% of mass shooters were “law abiding gun owners”, until they weren’t.

    We already have a police brutality problem.

    Which has been allowed to grow unchecked because they know “I thought he had a gun” are the magic words that let then execute people on the street.

    The fact that people want to give the police even more violent power over citizens is wild to me.

    So guns are the solution to police brutality and you’ve openly admitted to having a gun. So how many police have you shot? Please share with us the exact scenario where you would draw your gun on a police officer and fire.
