Multiple victims and their relatives filed suit this week against Kansas City as well as event planners and three gun sellers over the Chiefs’ Super Bowl parade mass shooting last year, claiming the tragedy that left one person dead and nearly two dozen wounded could have been prevented.
The civil lawsuit was filed in Jackson County, Missouri on June 2 by Erika Reyes, Esmeralda Ortiz and Kathleen Martinez on behalf of their minor children. Two of the plaintiffs are cousins and two are related by marriage, their attorneys told local outlets.
