A 17-year-old store employee was also shot and was taken to a hospital for treatment of his injuries.

Dating back to the late 1800s, at least 20 Kansas City, Kansas Police Department officers have died while on the job. The service, hosted by KCKPD and The Fraternal Order of Police, Lodge #4, fell five days before Memorial Day. The annual memorial service was the first held since the August 2025 death of KCK officer Hunter Simoncic. On Friday, the community recognized 10 Wyandotte County Sheriff’s Office deputies who have died in the line of duty, including deputy Elijah Ming, who was fatally shot on a call in July. Devin Baird, president of The Fraternal Order of Police, Lodge #40, told attendees at a memorial event outside the Wyandotte County Courthouse that the last two years have been difficult: “To say it has been rough has been an understatement,” he said. https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/wyandotte-county/article315882427.html/video-embed 99 2026-05-25T14:04:49Z no https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article315831679.html https://img.thecontentserver.com/2d64457b-ca3e-465b-8e61-8f5f41fbf1f9/1_th.jpg New United Market grocery store opens in Kansas City’s urban core, expanding food access United Market, a 36,000-square foot grocery store, opens on Prospect Avenue in Kansas City, bringing fresh groceries, new jobs and expanded food access to a neighborhood long considered a food desert. https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article315831679.html/video-embed 146 2026-05-20T23:11:57Z no
