An alleged shooter is on the run from police after an attack near the England World Cup training base in Kansas City. Authorities are searching for Oscar Sanchez-Munoz, 22, following four separate shootings that left one person dead and four others injured. One of the incidents occurred just a 15-minute drive from England's training base at Swope Soccer Village.
Stand-Off and Fire
There was reportedly a stand-off at a house in Independence, which subsequently went up in flames. After the fire was extinguished, Sanchez-Munoz was not found inside, and the search continues.
Police Appeal
Police Chief Stacey Graves urged the public: "If you see this individual, please call the TIPS hotline, please call 911 immediately. We are hot on the trail of this subject and we want to make sure he's taken into custody as soon as possible."
Chief Graves added: "I want people to know that the Kansas City, Missouri Police Department is out here protecting and serving. We have a lot of law enforcement agencies here in Kansas City not only to keep Kansas City safe but also World Cup events. That's one of the reasons we brought in a lot of outside law enforcement, so we could keep those events safe and make sure we have enough officers to police our city."
Ongoing Investigation
This is a breaking news story, and further updates are expected. Authorities are asking anyone with information to come forward.
