AceShowbiz - Patrick Mahomes and his teammates have broken his silence on the deadly shooting at the Kansas City Super Bowl parade. The football players took to their respective social media accounts to call for prayers for the victims.

On Wednesday, February 14, the 28-year-old turned to X (formerly Twitter) to write, "Praying for Kansas City." Chiefs linebacker Drue Tranquill, meanwhile, penned, "Please join me in prayer for all the victims in this heinous act. Pray that doctors & first responders would have steady hands & that all would experience full healing."

Football safety Justin Reid tweeted, "Praying for everyone in Kansas City at the parade." Trey Smith added, "My thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected by today's incidents-a huge thank you to the first responders who ran towards the sound of danger. You're the ones who should be celebrated today."

The shooting took place in Union Station while celebrating the Chiefs' Super Bowl LVIII win against the San Francisco 49ers. Police confirmed that one person was dead and 14 others were injured. Among those, three patients are in critical condition, five are in serious condition and one has non-life-threatening injuries, according to CNN.

"Anyone nearby needs to leave the area as quickly and safely as possible to facilitate treatment of the shooting victims," police declared via X. "Please avoid the Union Station parking garage area to allow first responders through."

Before the ordeal, Patrick and his wife, Brittany Mahomes, were seen having a good time atop the team's double-decker bus. At one point, the mom of two was seen dancing with her husband while pouring herself a drink in a water bottle.

Patrick also was seen supporting his teammate and pal Travis Kelce, who drunkenly sang a rendition of Garth Brooks' "Friends In Low Places". The quarterback later took the mic away from him.
