Hopefully it’s nothing serious and nobody was hurt.

I’ve been watching the parade and rally live on TV/Youtube for the past 2-3 hours. It was a fun day for everybody involved…until these assholes did this.

Here’s the live YouTube stream if you’re interested. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xah2lbtKWYY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xah2lbtKWYY)

Lots of assumptions so far with little confirmation. 10 injured reported so far. Nothing saying 10 were shot. In a panic situation there could be many other types of injuries. 2 taken into custody but no confirmation they were involved. It’s going to be a little while before the picture becomes clear.

I have no knowledge of the are at all. I’m seeing that it happened outside of the area of the rally while everyone was starting to leave. Is that accurate?

No, no. I’m already hearing people on the Interweb saying that guns are NOT (even _part_ of) the problem.

I’m not sure how much clearer it gets than that.

Two people detained. Hopefully they are the ones responsible. Missouri is an open carry state. It’s possible that someone armed in the area was taken in for further investigation.

Totally unconfirmed but from a cop page locals are saying other than the one dead there are 3 critical. They also said the kids that were hurt were not from gunfire but from the rush of the crowd.
