Patrick Mahomes is safe after a deadly shooting took place during the team’s Super Bowl victory parade in Kansas City, Mo.
“Praying for Kansas City…,” the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback wrote via X (previously Twitter) Wednesday afternoon.
Mahomes’ message comes shortly after news surfaced that multiple people were shot in Union Station while celebrating the team’s Super Bowl LVIII win against the San Francisco 49ers.
Per CNN, Kansas City Fire Department spokesperson Michael Hopkins reported that one person has died while multiple others were injured.

Following the shooting, police urged fans to quickly leave the area so victims could quickly receive treatment.
“Anyone nearby needs to leave the area as quickly and safely as possible to facilitate treatment of the shooting victims. Please avoid the Union Station parking garage area to allow first responders through,” police said via X.
Police said three armed people were taken into custody, one of whom was allegedly caught on camera being subdued by fans.
Drue Tranquill, a linebacker for the Chiefs, also asked for prayers from fans.

“Please join me in prayer for all the victims in this heinous act. Pray that doctors & first responders would have steady hands & that all would experience full healing,” he tweeted.
Rick Burkholder, Vice President of Sports Medicine and Performance for the Chiefs, tweeted that he, his wife and head coach Andy Reid were also safe following the shooting.
“My wife and I along with Coach Reid and his family are safe and on a bus headed to Arrowhead. Thank you to@kcpolice and others,” he wrote.

Before the shooting began, Patrick and his wife, Brittany Mahomes, were seen having a good top atop the team’s double-decker bus.
At one point, the mom of two was seen dancing with her husband while pouring herself a drink in a water bottle.
Patrick also was seen supporting his teammate and pal Travis Kelce, who drunkenly sang a rendition of Garth Brooks’ “Friends In Low Places” before the quarterback took the mic away from him.
