Shooting Erupts at a Kansas City Hospital

Officials say a gunman pursued two shooting victims as they drove to a Kansas hospital, where he shot one of them at the entrance and then killed himself.

The University of Kansas Hospital says in a statement that it started around 11:30 p.m. Monday when gunfire erupted about 2 .5 miles away. The statement says the shooting suspect followed a male victim as he drove to the hospital with a female victim.

Upon arriving, the man ran to the hospital’s main entrance, which was secured. The hospital says the gunman then shot the man before turning the gun on himself.

The hospital says the shooter died, but the male victim survived with life-threatening injuries. The woman’s injuries aren’t believed to be life-threatening.

No hospital employees were hurt. No names have been released at this time.
