Three inside vehicle shot on Winner Road at I-435
Kansas City police are searching for the people responsible for wounding three occupants of a vehicle in a shooting early Saturday on Winner Road at Interstate 435.
The three people hurt were shot while riding in a vehicle about 3:25 a.m. Police said none of the wounds were life threatening. One of the four people in the car was not injured.
The victims told police that when they stopped at a light on Winner Road, an unknown vehicle pulled up next to them and its occupants began shooting.
The victims drove to the Flying J truck stop at 1300 N. Corrington Ave., where they called police. Two of the three victims were transported to area hospitals for treatment.
Some early reports suggested road rage might be a factor, but police said they were not sure and are investigating it as an aggravated assault.
