Kansas City metro records 69 homicides in 2026. Here are the details of each killing
Homicides in Kansas City declined slightly in 2025 from previous years, and nonfatal shootings were down more than 30% from 2024. In 2025, the entire Kansas City metro saw 183 homicides, down from 190 in 2024, according to data collected by The Star, which includes fatal police shootings.
The previous year, 2023, marked Kansas City’s deadliest on record, with 185 killings in Kansas City alone. More than 240 people died by homicide across the metro area that year. 2020 was the city’s second-deadliest year on record, with 182 killings in the city and 269 if surrounding cities are included.
This list for 2026 includes details of every homicide across the Kansas City metro area once they are reported by police. It includes when and where the victims died and the names and ages of each victim, when available.
The list will be updated throughout the year, with the most recent homicides at the top.
The Star counts fatal police shootings as homicides, which could mean a city’s total will differ from those kept by a city’s police department. Some homicides on the list may be judged by authorities as justifiable.
