Baker claims that after Mays pulled his gun, Miller and the other individuals engaged in firing. During the shooting, Mays was seen with a red long-sleeve t-shirt on. According to court records made public on Tuesday, Mr. Mays got into a verbal fight with four individuals when they questioned “what he was looking at.”
Following an aggressive approach and pointing “in an angry manner” at the other group, Mr. Mays approached them before pulling his pistol, according to surveillance footage of the shooting.
His and Miller’s arrest occurred a few days after the Associated Press reported that two youths had been charged with gun-related offences and resisting arrest in relation to the incident.
Meanwhile, a report in The New York Post tells that one of the alleged Kansas City Super Bowl parade shooters’ mother created a GoFundMe page for him, stating that he required assistance during a “tragic time.”
For her son Lyndell Mays, Teneal Burnside developed an online fundraiser that featured him recuperating from nine gunshot wounds sustained during the shootout he allegedly started. The now-deleted fundraiser stated as per the above mentioned outlet:
He is in the ICU fighting for a recovery from several surgeries from going to the Chiefs’ Super Bowl celebration with his older sister.”
Mays and Miller are currently in hospital and recovering.
