President Biden has been briefed on the shooting and will continue to receive updates, the White House said. The Attorney General was also briefed on the shooting.

The FBI also had a presence at the parade and is providing assistance to the Kansas City Police Department.

Kade Collins, who was in attendance at the parade with his dad, described the whole ordeal to Fox 4 KC.

“We heard 10-12 gunshots, but we thought they were fireworks, so we didn’t really panic at first or get too worked up. But then everyone started screaming and took off running,” Collins said. “Once the crowd moved out of the way, I could see three people with gunshot wounds on the ground. I saw one girl with a gunshot wound to her leg. A second woman was also shot and had something tied around her leg to make a tourniquet and her leg was covered in blood.”

Collins said he saw people helping the wounded.

“There was a guy right by her, and he was in a lot worse shape – he was lying flat on his back. There were multiple people around him helping him. All three of these people seemed pretty young. In their 20s to 30s. We were trying to get out of there as fast as we could,” Collins said. “My dad saw the police tackle a suspect. When we were walking out, there was someone pointing and saying ‘he’s right there, he’s right there.’ and police ran to the guy the crowd was pointing at and tackled him and put him in handcuffs. Everyone took off running and screaming.”
