Lee's summit police are looking into a shooting at Liam McAgan Park on Shipman Road that happens Sunday evening. One person got hit with a gunshot wound but had injuries that weren't life-threatening. The victim walked up to officers and got rushed to a local hospital right away. The park splits across Shipman Road with stuff like escape park, pickleball courts, volleyball areas and playgrounds on both sides, plus big parking, lots. A large crowd was there when it went down and cops shut down the north section and nearby roads for hours while they checked the scene. A neighbor nearby, William Tokars, heard between 15 and 30 shots from his house. He looked out and saw around 100 people plus a police vehicle already on site. He called it lucky that just one person got hurt in that chaos. Detectives were still talking to witnesses Monday morning and piecing together what sparked the whole thing. They picked up showcasing but haven't said how many shots were actually fired.
