After initial first aid, the three seriously injured victims were immediately admitted to the emergency ward of the nearest hospital, where they are being looked after by a team of doctors.

Devastation occurred just 4 miles away from Swope Soccer Village, where the British team is scheduled to stay.
According to local media reports, this entire violent incident took place just four miles away from Kansas City’s famous ‘Swoop Soccer Village’. It is noteworthy that Swope Soccer Village has been made the official ‘base camp’ of the Britain (UK) national football team during the World Cup, where very strict security arrangements have been made for the players to stay and practice. Due to firing so close to the base camp at the time of the incident, the claims of the security system have been exposed. After this incident, many serious questions have started being raised regarding the safety of players and VIP guests during the World Cup.
British players narrowly escaped, are going to play friendly match against Costa Rica in Florida
The biggest thing of relief was that at the time of this bloody incident, no player or staff of the British football team was present in the base camp, due to which a major accident was averted. According to official sources, the British team has not yet reached Kansas City. The British team is currently busy with their pre-tournament schedule and preparing to play a very important pre-tournament friendly against Costa Rica in Orlando, Florida on Wednesday. The British team is scheduled to come to its base camp only after playing this match, but after this incident the British Football Association may review the security arrangements afresh.
