A third man has been charged with murder in connection with the mass shooting at a Kansas City Chiefs victory rally last month, which killed one lady and injured more than two dozen others, officials said Thursday.
Terry J. Young, 20, is charged with second-degree murder, unauthorized use of a firearm, and two counts of armed criminal action, according to a news release from Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker.
CNN has been unable to locate an attorney for Young. He is being jailed on a $1 million cash bond, according to court documents.
According to the prosecutor’s office, Young and two other people “fired weapons in response to a verbal argument,” which resulted in the death of the woman and the wounding of the others.
According to prosecutors, Young and two others approached a member of another group and got into a verbal argument.
“After one individual pulled out a firearm, Young pulled out a firearm, pointed it at, and advanced toward the first individual,” prosecutors stated in a press release. “A review of surveillance video showed Young appearing to shoot several times.”
Investigators searched Young’s social media accounts and allegedly discovered him carrying the “same distinctive backpack” shown in security footage from Union Station, where the incident occurred.
“The cell phone data also showed that the device was in the area of the shooting when it occurred,” the prosecutor’s office stated.
Two other guys were charged with murder and other felony offenses last month.
“Everyone we’ve identified who discharged a firearm in response to the verbal altercation detailed here has been taken into custody,” Baker said in a statement Thursday.
In February, CNN reported that Lyndell Mays of Raytown and Dominic M. Miller of Kansas City had been charged with second-degree murder, unauthorized use of a firearm, and two counts of armed criminal action. They are being held with a $1 million bond. CNN has contacted Mays’ representation but has not named Miller’s attorney.
Three juveniles are also facing charges in Family Court, prosecutors said Thursday.
“All of the shooters in this incident are in the custody of adult and juvenile authorities. However, given the extent of this ongoing investigation, additional charges are expected,” according to a news statement from the prosecutor’s office.
