This afternoon’s bomb scare at the Richard Bolling Federal Building still fresh in their minds, Kansas City residents are no struggling t to make sense of an attempted murder-suicide in the parking lots outside of Kauffman Stadium:
Police said the victim worked in the parking lot and was on duty when the gunman, believed to be her boyfriend or former boyfriend, approached with a gun.
The gunman shot her once in the abdomen and he returned to his car, where he shot and killed himself. He died at the scene. The woman is undergoing surgery at a hospital.
