Overview
- The Kansas City Police Department says the case is classified as aggravated assault because the building was occupied when the round pierced the window.
- The gunfire occurred shortly after midnight on May 4, 2024, with three shots striking the facility, including one that lodged about 15 feet from Reid’s desk.
- No one was injured, and detectives say the investigation remains active as they await further forensic analysis to pinpoint where the shot was fired from.
- Police report no indication the shooting targeted any person or the organization, and a team insider told USA TODAY it is believed to have been random.
- The Chiefs installed bulletproof glass in Reid’s office and tightened perimeter security, and many inside the team only learned of the episode after the Kansas City Star’s report; the club has declined public comment.
