Sergeant Roy Hoskins say the victim told police there were two white males and one white female in the car. All three were wearing hoodies. The victim told investigators the assailants asked if he was someone else. When the victim said “no,” he was shot in the legs.

The victim’s name was not released. He was taken by private vehicle to Mosaic Life Care for treatment of gunshot wounds to legs. Hoskins says the injuries did not appear to be life-threatening.

Sgt. Hoskins says it does not appear that the victim and the shooter knew each other. If you can help investigators, call the TIPS hotline at (816)238-TIPS.
