The authorities said they had taken three into custody, including two who were younger than 18. The shooting left one person dead and 22 more injured.
The authorities in Kansas City, Mo., said on Thursday that a shooting that tore through the city’s Super Bowl celebration, killing one person and wounding nearly two dozen others, appeared to have stemmed from an argument between several .
Stacey Graves, the city’s police chief, said there was no indication that the shooting was connected to terrorism. At least 22 were wounded, in addition to the woman who died, and they ranged in age from 8 to 47 years old, Chief Graves said. At least half of the wounded were younger than 16.
The authorities have said that three were detained in connection to the shooting on Wednesday afternoon. Two of them, the police said, were younger than 18. No charges have been filed.
“I’m angered what occurred in our city yesterday,” Chief Graves said.
The person who died was identified as Elizabeth Galvan, 43, a local D.J. who was also known as Lisa Lopez-Galvan. A friend described her as a passionate fan of the city’s football team who was deeply involved in civic events and hosted a radio show.
The shooting erupted as thousands of football fans had crowded into downtown Kansas City after the Chiefs’ Super Bowl win, suddenly turning a day of revelry into one of chaos and confusion. As shots rang out, ran for cover.
Chief Graves praised the response of her department’s officers and firefighters, and also noted that civilians themselves had sprung into action. Videos had captured one parade attendee tackling a person as others ran from the gunshots.
