Fatal Shooting Reported in Kauffman Stadium Parking Lot

A man shot and killed himself after shooting and wounding a woman in the parking lot of Kauffman Stadium before the Kansas City Royals vs. Los Angeles Angels game on Friday, according to the Kansas City Star.

The woman was working in the parking lot at the time of the shooting. She was reportedly approached by the man and shot once in the abdomen. The man then returned to his car and turned the gun on himself. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The shooter was believed to be the victim's boyfriend or former boyfriend. 

The woman worked at the parking lot as a secondary means of employment. She is reportedly undergoing surgery at a Kansas City hospital.

The parking lots were reportedly closed momentarily, but have since been reopened. The Royals and Angels are still scheduled to play their game at 8:10 p.m. ET.

There have been an alarming amount of violent incidents at sports stadiums lately.

In the Bay Area alone, there was the incident where San Francisco Giants fan Bryan Stow was beaten severely outside Dodger Stadium on Opening Day last year. Two fans were also shot in the parking lot of Candlestick Park during a preseason game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Oakland Raiders last season.
