A Chiefs fan risked life and limb to tackle a shooter and prevent anyone else from getting hurt at the team’s victory parade on Wednesday.
The team took to the Kansas City streets to celebrate their third Super Bowl win in the last five years and it should have been a festive affair. However, the event was marred by a shocking development, with multiple people reportedly injured after two shooters opened fire at its conclusion.
Police advised fans to evacuate the area and have since reported making two arrests.
But a fan is being credited for his bravery as he risked it all to take one of the shooters down, making sure no one else was injured or worse.

This was indeed a show of courage and selflessness as the man in question could have easily lost his life. Thankfully, that was not the case, with the shooter was subdued until the police could get there to apprehend him.
