James Palmer of NFL Network did as well:

Police asked everyone to avoid the Union Station parking garage area so first responders had a clear path through to help the victims.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, and tight end Travis Kelce both posted on social media in the aftermath of the shooting, while the NFL released a statement:

Rick Burkholder, who is the Chiefs' head athletic trainer, also took to social media and said, "My wife and I, along with Coach [Andy] Reid and his family, are safe and on a bus headed to Arrowhead. Thank you KC Police and others."

The gunshots were heard around the end of Wednesday's rally, which was celebrating the Chiefs' 25-22 overtime victory over the San Francisco 49ers in Sunday's Super Bowl LVIII.

There was a parade and celebration during which multiple players, including Mahomes, addressed the crowd.
