Several children were among the fans who were injured when a shooting took place at the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory parade on Wednesday, and Patrick Mahomes paid some of the victims a hospital visit.
Mahomes and his wife Brittany on Friday visited Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, where 12 victims — including 11 children aged between 6 and 15 — were treated after the parade. Malik Jackson of FOX 4 News Kansas City posted some photos on X that the family of a young girl who was shot shared with him.
