Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany spent their day visiting kids shot at the Kansas City Chiefs victory parade.
The Super Bowl rally took a turn when gunshots were heard. While panic ensued, 22 people were injured. One woman, Lisa Lopez-Galvan, lost her life.
Out of the injured, though, nine people were children.
As per KMBC, Patrick and Brittany met with the Reyes family. The two girls (ages eight and ten) were admitted to the Children's Mercy KC hospital after being shot in the leg and had to undergo surgery. They will also be in casts for months.
