"No nexus to terrorism" in mass shooting near Kansas City Super Bowl parade, officials say

What they're saying: Police Chief Stacey Graves said Thursday at a press conference that "preliminary investigative findings have shown there was no nexus to terrorism or homegrown violent extremism."

• Graves said the shooting "appeared to be a dispute between several people that ended in gunfire."
• She also noted that "this incident is still a very active investigation."

Details: Graves identified the victim who died as 43-year-old Lisa Lopez-Galvan.

• "We are still learning about her but know that she is beloved by many. To her friends and family — we are with you, and we are working tirelessly to investigate her murder," Graves said.
• Lopez-Galvan was a mother of two and a prominent Hispanic DJ, per AP.
• At least half of the victims, who range from ages 8 to 47, are under the age of 16, Graves said.

Of note: Two of the people detained are juveniles and authorities have recovered several firearms, according to Graves.

• None of the people who were detained have been charged, Graves said.

• "We do have 24 hours until we have to either file charges or release them," she said.
• Graves added that authorities are working closely with the Jackson County Prosecutor's Office to "present the most successful case for prosecution."

Catch up quick: President Biden, in online statements Wednesday, paid tribute to the victims and demanded congressional action on gun violence.

• He noted the incident had occurred "on a day that marks six years since the Parkland shooting" in Florida, which left 17 people dead.
• "We've now had more mass shootings in 2024 than there have been days in the year," Biden added.
