THE TERRIBLE SCENE
TMZSports.com

New video of the Kansas City shooting shows some of the injured children trying to escape the horrific scene -- and we've learned new info about what sort of weapon police believe the shooter used.

TMZ obtained this never-before-seen footage ... a new angle of Wednesday's shooting as the Chiefs Super Bowl celebration wrapped, and now you can see exactly where the shooting started ... and how the injured -- including a handful of kids -- reacted.

Police have said 9 minors were among the 23 victims who suffered gunshot wounds yesterday, and here you can see a few of them hobbling away -- but heroically, also helping each other -- immediately after the barrage of gunfire outside Union Station.

You can also hear someone yelling, "It's fireworks!" -- a mistake several witnesses have said people were making amid the chaos and confusion immediately following the shots.

Remember, cops have come out and said this didn't appear to be a terroristic act, but rather, a possible dispute between parties ... which killed at least one person.

As for the investigation ... cops have only said they have 3 persons of interest in custody, and 2 of them are juveniles -- but our sources, with direct knowledge of the investigation, say cops also know there were an estimated 40 shots discharged on the scene.

We're also told cops recovered at least 3 weapons -- one of them is an AR-style pistol, and 2 others are handguns with extended magazines. It's unclear if all those weapons were fired during the shooting.

Our sources say cops believe the violence was set off by a confrontation between 2 males and one female -- and it's possible there was more than one person who opened fire in the dense crowd.

As of now, no one's been charged in the mass shooting ... and we're told the 3 persons of interest are being held in separate jails while police question them and gather more information.

La terrible escena
TMZSports.com

Un nuevo video del tiroteo en Kansas City muestra a algunos de los niños heridos tratando de escapar del lugar y junto con eso hemos averiguado nueva información sobre el tipo de arma que la policía cree que utilizó el tirador.

TMZ obtuvo este material, que es un nuevo ángulo del tiroteo ocurrido el miércoles en medio de la celebración del Super Bowl de los Chiefs, y ahora se sabe exactamente dónde comenzó el tiroteo y cómo reaccionaron los heridos, incluyendo un puñado de niños.

La policía ha dicho que 9 menores estaban entre las 23 víctimas que sufrieron heridas de bala, y en este video se puede ver incluso a algunos de ellos cojeando, pero heroicamente y ayudándose unos con otros. Esto ocurrió inmediatamente después de que estallaran los disparos afuera de Union Station.

También se puede escuchar a alguien gritando: "¡Son fuegos artificiales!", un error que varios testigos escucharon a la gente decir en medio del caos y la confusión después del tiroteo.

Recuerden, los policías han dicho que esto no parece ser un acto terrorista, sino más bien una posible disputa entre las partes que terminó cobrando la vida de una persona.

En cuanto a la investigación, los policías solo han dicho que tienen a tres personas de interés en custodia. Dos de ellas son menores de edad, pero nuestras fuentes, quienes tienen conocimiento directo de la investigación, dicen que los policías también saben que se efectuaron alrededor de 40 disparos en la escena.

También nos han dicho que la policía recuperó al menos tres armas: una de ellas era una pistola AR y otras dos contaban con cargadores de gran capacidad. No está claro si todas esas armas fueron disparadas durante el tiroteo.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que la policía cree que la violencia fue provocada por un enfrentamiento entre dos hombres y una mujer, y es posible que hubiera más de una persona abriendo el fuego entre la densa multitud.

Por ahora, nadie ha sido acusado y nos dicen que las 3 personas de interés están detenidas en cárceles separadas, mientras la policía los interroga y reúne más información.

LSU RB Trey Holly Arrested ... Booked On Attempted Murder Charge

LSU running back Trey Holly -- who played in three games for the Tigers last season -- was arrested on Thursday in Louisiana and booked on several felony charges ... including attempted second-degree murder, TMZ Sports has confirmed.

Union Parish Sheriff Dusty Gates tells us ... Holly turned himself in to authorities with his attorney at around noon -- and in addition to the attempted murder charge, he was also booked for felony aggravated criminal damage to property and felony illegal use of a weapon.

Gates said the arrest was related to a shooting that Holly was allegedly involved in back on Feb. 9. The sheriff said the incident took place at an apartment complex following "a disturbance" at a previous location ... and left two people -- one male and one female -- hospitalized.

Gates said investigators identified Holly and three others as the shooting suspects after interviewing eyewitnesses. We're told Holly is now being held on a $512,000 bond.

LSU said in a statement shortly after Holly was thrown behind bars that it was "aware that a student-athlete has been arrested in relation to a shooting in Union Parish. This student-athlete has been suspended indefinitely from all team activities, in accordance with departmental policies. Out of respect for the judicial process, we will have no further comment.”

Selena Traveled with Yolanda After She Allegedly Stole $$$ ... Saldívar Family Claims

Selena Quintanilla didn't cut Yolanda Saldívar out of her life after her father accused Yolanda of embezzling from Selena's clothing boutique ... because they jetted to Mexico together.

That's what Yolanda's family is claiming, saying they have airplane tickets showing Selena and the woman who would later kill her flew first class to Monterrey only a week after Abraham Quintanilla confronted Yolanda about missing funds.

The shocking allegation is featured in the upcoming Oxygen docuseries, "Selena & Yolanda: The Secrets Between Them."

In a clip from the series, obtained by TMZ, Yolanda's family discovers first-class United Airlines tickets for Selena and Yolanda on March 17, 1995 ... only 8 days after Yolanda was accused of embezzlement.

Yolanda's family says the previously unknown trip raises new questions -- like, why would Selena continue her business relationship with Yolanda after her pops made serious allegations?

Selena's dad fired Yolanda on March 9, 1995, after accusing her of embezzling money from the Tejano star's clothing company, which was planning to open a boutique in Monterrey.

Yolanda ended up shooting and killing Selena 2 weeks after their flight to Mexico ... and now she's serving a life sentence, though she's eligible for parole on March 30, 2025.

In an interview from prison, Yolanda claims Selena would not accept her resignation and wanted to keep her around to run the clothing line and oversee things down in Mexico.

Selena's father has blasted the doc, telling us it's a slap in the face to his family. He also says Yolanda's story is packed with lies.

Selena viajó con Yolanda Saldívar Tras las acusaciones de desfalco

Selena Quintanilla no sacó a Yolanda Saldívar de su vida después de que su padre acusara a Yolanda de malversar fondos de la boutique de ropa de Selena, porque viajaron juntas a México.

Eso es lo que afirma la familia de Yolanda, diciendo que tienen billetes de avión que muestran que Selena y a la mujer que más tarde la mataría volaron en primera clase a Monterrey solo una semana después de Abraham Quintanilla se enfrentó a Yolanda sobre los fondos que faltan.

La impactante acusación aparece en la próxima docuserie de Oxygen, "Selena & Yolanda: The Secrets Between Them".

En un clip de la serie, obtenido por TMZ, la familia de Yolanda descubre billetes de primera clase de United Airlines para Selena y Yolanda el 17 de marzo de 1995, solo 8 días después de que Yolanda fuera acusada de malversación de fondos.

La familia de Yolanda dice que el viaje previamente desconocido plantea nuevas preguntas, como, ¿por qué Selena continúa su relación de negocios con Yolanda después de que su papá hizo graves acusaciones?

El padre de Selena despidió a Yolanda el 9 de marzo de 1995, tras acusarla de malversar dinero de la empresa de ropa de la estrella tejana que planeaba abrir una boutique en Monterrey.

Yolanda le terminó disparando y matando a Selena dos semanas después de su vuelo a México y ahora está cumpliendo una cadena perpetua, aunque es elegible para libertad condicional el 30 de marzo de 2025.

En una entrevista desde la cárcel, Yolanda afirma que Selena no aceptó su renuncia y quería mantenerla cerca para ejecutar la línea de ropa y supervisar las cosas en México.

El padre de Selena ha criticado el documento, diciéndonos que es una bofetada en la cara a su familia. También dice que la historia de Yolanda está llena de mentiras.

Jada Pinkett Smith Dos hombres subieron a su balcón Ella los asustó!!!

Jada Pinkett Smith tuvo un aterrador incidente en su casa de Los Ángeles a principios de esta semana: la policía dice que dos hombres se subieron a su balcón mientras ella estaba dentro.

Fuentes policiales le dicen a TMZ que los hombres con capuchas intentaron entrar poco antes de las 8 PM pensando que no había nadie en la casa, pero que se asustaron cuando la presentadora de "Red Table Talk" los vio.

La policía se dirigió a la escena, pero nuestras fuentes dicen que los sospechosos se habían ido y no estaban en ninguna parte.

No está claro si Jada era el objetivo o si solo era una banda golpeando casas bonitas alrededor de la zona de Los Ángeles.

Nos dicen que los oficiales hicieron un informe de intento de robo y el caso está bajo investigación.

Jada ha estado separada de su marido Will desde hace unos años, y aunque todavía están en muy buenos términos, especialmente después de la bofetada de los Oscar, es muy poco probable que estuviera con ella en el momento del robo.

JADA PINKETT SMITH 2 MEN CLIMB ONTO HER BALCONY ... She Scared Them Off!!

Jada Pinkett Smith had a terrifying incident go down at her Los Angeles Area home earlier this week -- cops say two men climbed onto her balcony while she was inside!

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the men wearing hoodies attempted to break in a little before 8 PM thinking the coast was clear -- but we're told they were scared off when the "Red Table Talk" host saw them.

Police responded to the scene ... but our sources say the suspects had long taken off and were nowhere to be found.

Unclear if Jada was the target or if this was just a crew hitting nice homes in and around the L.A. area.

We're told deputies took an attempted burglary report ... and the case is now under investigation.

Jada's been separated from hubby Will for a few years now, and though they're apparently still on pretty good terms, especially in the aftermath of that Oscars slap, it's highly unlikely that he was with her at the time of the break-in.

Chrisean Rock Sued By Backup Singer ... Alleged Assault, Used Slur

Chrisean Rock's facing a legal battle on the civil front ... she's on the receiving end of a lawsuit for an alleged assault, one that allegedly took place during a Tamar Braxton show.

According to legal documents, obtained by TMZ ... TV personality James Wright is suing Chrisean, claiming she attacked him at a club show back in November -- an incident he says led to multiple face lacerations and two broken teeth.

ICYMI ... James Wright was reportedly hospitalized following Tamar's show in Downtown Los Angeles around this same time. Tamar talked about the alleged incident during an IG Live where she said Chrisean thought she was supposed to have a bigger role in the show ... and apparently became agitated when she was told that wasn't the case.

Anyway ... in the suit, James, who sang backup for TB, says he told Rock she was supposed to only come onstage for the twerk portion at the end of the night. He says he told her she was not in the properly designated area and that’s when she allegedly hit him.

Wright claims Rock stuck him several times using a hand with "large champion style rings" that caused the lacerations and broken teeth. He also claims she called him a homophobic slur in the aftermath of the alleged assault.

Wright says he was sent to the hospital and also had to consult with a dentist and plastic surgeon in the aftermath of the alleged incident.

Now, James is taking Chrisean for assault, battery, and emotional distress … and he’s seeking compensation for his medical bills, among other damages.

Chrisean Rock Demandada por un corista... Presunta agresión e insultos

Chrisean Rock se enfrenta a una batalla legal en el frente civil tras ser demandada por una presunta agresión, una que supuestamente tuvo lugar durante un show de Tamar Braxton.

De acuerdo con documentos legales obtenidos por TMZ, la personalidad de la televisión James Wright está demandando a Chrisean, alegando que lo atacó en un show en noviembre y que dio lugar a múltiples laceraciones en la cara y dos dientes rotos.

Por si se lo perdieron, según los informes, James Wright fue hospitalizado luego del show de Tamar en el centro de Los Ángeles alrededor de esa misma fecha. Tamar habló sobre el presunto incidente durante un IG Live donde dijo que Chrisean pensaba que tendría un papel más importante en el show, y al parecer se agitó al saber que no era el caso.

De todos modos, en la demanda, James, que cantó como apoyo de Tamar Braxton, dice que le dijo a Rock que solo debía subir al escenario para la parte twerk del final. Dice que le dijo que no estaba en la zona designada y que fue entonces cuando supuestamente lo golpeó.

Wright afirma que Rock le pegó varias veces utilizando una mano con "grandes anillos estilo campeón" que le causaron las laceraciones y la rotura de dientes. También afirma que le lanzó un insulto homofóbico tras la supuesta agresión.

Wright dice que fue enviado al hospital y también tuvo que consultar con un dentista y un cirujano plástico a raíz del presunto incidente.

Ahora, James está demandando a Chrisean por agresión y angustia emocional, y está buscando una compensación por sus gastos médicos, entre otros daños.

Killer Mike Addresses Grammys Arrest Entryway Confusion, Overzealous Guard

Killer Mike is clarifying what happened at the Grammys that landed him in cuffs -- and he says it can all be chalked up to confusion ... and someone trying too hard to play police officer.

We experienced an over-zealous security guard but my team and I have the utmost confidence that I will ultimately be cleared of all wrongdoing.

Celeb Hot Spot Craig's We Got Robbed, Security Did Nothing ... Customers Sue!!!

ARMED ROBBERY OUTSIDE CRAIG'S

A couple says they got robbed at gunpoint at Craig's in an incident caught on camera -- and now, they're dragging the celebrity hotspot to court.

Felipe Darrell and Terry Christanio say they are the couple seen on surveillance video being robbed outside Craig's last year ... and they're pissed at restaurant owner Craig Susser, claiming he's shown no concern for them because they're not famous.

Felipe and Terry say Susser hasn't given them the time of day since the robbery ... and now they're suing him and his restaurant.

According to the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, they were leaving Craig's after dinner back in August, and were waiting in the valet area when 3 armed men hopped out of a car and robbed them at gunpoint.

The video shows the suspects throwing a man in a suit to the ground, and ordering a woman to get on the pavement -- Felipe claims they stole his Rolex and necklace, and they both feared for their lives during the robbery.

In their suit, Felipe and Terry say Craig's lone security guard was too distracted taking photos of other guests to notice a car full of men casing out the joint ... and they say the robbers were even parked at valet when they hopped out of the car to jack their jewelry.

The couple claims the brazen robbery followed other similar incidents at popular restaurants in the West Hollywood area last summer ... and Felipe and Terry say Craig's should have beefed up security in response.

It's been over 5 months since the incident and Felipe and Terry say the restaurant owner blew off an offer to meet and talk about what happened ... and they say they're suing so Craig's is held accountable for what they see as negligence.

Blueface Warrant Issued Outta Las Vegas ... Alleged Probation Misstep

More legal trouble for Blueface as he sits in a Los Angeles jail cell ... 'cause a judge in Las Vegas wants him arrested and brought to Nevada for an alleged probation violation.

According to new legal docs obtained by TMZ, a Nevada judge issued a bench warrant for Blueface's arrest for violating the terms of his probation. In case you forgot, Blueface is also on probation in NV as part of a plea deal he cut in his Vegas strip club shooting case.

As we reported ... Blueface received a suspended sentence in that case, getting hit with 3 years of probation and no jail time if he kept his nose clean. He also had a 2-5 year underlying sentence, meaning a probation violation could get him locked up for a few years.

Now, in terms of what exactly he allegedly did to violate his probation in Vegas -- besides getting locked up here in Cali, of course, which will usually do the trick -- his attorney spoke on it to local media outlets and cited something else, specifically, prosecutors are eyeing.

INSTIGATING A FIGHT

Blue's lawyer Kristina Wildeveld told 8 News Now the alleged probation violation relates to cell phone video from a Utah performance last December, with the footage appearing to show Blueface bringing a woman on stage and telling his fiancée to "get her" as she attacked her.

It shouldn’t be too hard for law enforcement to track Blueface down ... like we said, he's currently in custody in Men's Central Jail in L.A., where he's been for weeks now ... the result of a separate probation violation for an assault case here in the Golden State.

Deceased KC Chiefs Fans Early Toxicology Indicates Cocaine & Fentanyl in Systems

update

2:24 PM PT -- Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... early toxicology results from this investigation suggest traces of cocaine and fentanyl were found in the deceased's systems. A full toxicology report has yet to be released -- but for now, we're told these are substances that cops have detected early on, and there may be others that surface when the official results come out.

IMPORTANT PIECE OF THE PUZZLE
TMZ.com

The mysterious deaths of 3 Chiefs fans might soon be cleared up -- and early signs point to it being drug-related ... so says an attorney repping one of the families of the deceased.

We talked to Tony Kagay -- a lawyer who's been hired by the mother of Clayton McGeeney, who was one of the three who were found dead in Jordan Willis' backyard -- who joined us on "TMZ Live" Thursday to tell us what he knows about the investigation thus far.

Kagay was certainly trying to keep his cards close to the vest here -- but based on a meeting he says his client, Nancy Bossert (Clayton's mom), had with authorities Wednesday ... it sounds like what people have suspected will soon be confirmed.

Namely, he seems to be suggesting that the autopsies are complete and early toxicology tests have been run ... and while he doesn't reveal the exact results, he does say he's privy to the fact that there may (or may not) be substances that were discovered in their bodies.

We pushed Kagay to tell us what he knew -- but he was being careful with what he said, and how he said it ... but you can read between the lines here and figure out what's what.

Basically, Kagay acknowledges that drugs may have played a part in the 3 men's deaths -- but there are still questions that need to be answered ... including how any substances may have gotten into their system, and what exactly played out over the course of 2 days.

Cops so far have reiterated that there's no evidence of foul play, and that they're not investigating this as a homicide --- something Kagay confirmed with us as well.

Like we said, there's still a lot to uncover ... but Kagay tells us he believes the autopsy/toxicology results will be released soon (even as early as Thursday) -- which will hopefully shed some light on this tragedy. In the meantime, his client has asked for privacy.

Nancy did say this about her son ... "Clayton was a beloved son ... Clayton was a caring father. Clayton was a loving partner to his fiancée, April Mahoney. His death under any circumstances would have been painful to everyone his life had touched. Under these unusual and confusing circumstances, it is even more difficult for the family to deal with."

Hinchas fallecidos de los Chiefs Abogado de la familia... La toxicología sugiere drogas

2:24 PM PT -- Fuentes con conocimiento directo le dicen a TMZ que los primeros resultados toxicológicos de la investigación sugieren que se encontraron rastros de cocaína y fentanilo en el cuerpo de los fallecidos. El informe toxicológico completo aún no se ha publicado, pero por ahora nos dicen que estas son las sustancias que han detectado los policías y pueden aparecer otras cuando salgan los resultados oficiales.

Importante pieza en el Puzzle
TMZ.com

La misteriosa muerte de los 3 hinchas de los Chiefs podría ser aclarada pronto, y los primeros indicios apuntan a que estarían relacionadas con las drogas, así lo dice un abogado que representa a la familia de uno de los fallecidos.

Hablamos con Tony Kagay, un abogado que fue contratado por la madre de Clayton McGeeney, uno de los tres amigos que fueron encontrados muertos en el patio trasero de Jordan Willis y que se unió a nosotros en "TMZ Live" este jueves para decirnos lo que sabe acerca de la investigación hasta el momento.

Kagay ciertamente estaba tratando de ser discreto, pero de acuerdo a una reunión que su cliente, Nancy Bossert (la madre de Clayton), tuvo con las autoridades el miércoles, parece que las sospechas de la gente pronto se confirmarán.

Con esto, parece estar sugiriendo que las autopsias y las primeras pruebas de toxicología se han ejecutado, y aunque no revela los resultados exactos, dice que está al tanto de que se pueden (o no) haber descubierto sustancias en sus cuerpos.

Presionamos a Kagay para que nos dijera lo que sabía, pero fue muy cuidadoso con la forma y contenido de sus palabras, pero algo se puede leer entre líneas.

Básicamente, Kagay reconoce que las drogas pueden haber jugado un papel en la muerte de los tres hombres, pero todavía hay preguntas que necesitan respuestas, incluyendo el hecho de cómo pueden haber entrado las sustancias en su sistema, y lo que exactamente pasó en el transcurso de esos dos días.

Hasta ahora, la policía ha reiterado que no hay evidencia de juego sucio y que no están investigando esto como un homicidio, algo que Kagay también confirmó con nosotros.

Como les hemos contado, aún queda mucho por descubrir, pero Kagay cree que los resultados de la autopsia/toxicología se darán a conocer pronto (incluso el jueves), lo que esperamos arroje algo de luz sobre esta tragedia. Mientras tanto, su cliente ha pedido privacidad.

Nancy dijo esto acerca de su hijo: "Clayton era un hijo muy querido ... Clayton era un padre cariñoso. Clayton era un compañero amoroso de su prometida, April Mahoney. Su muerte habría sido dolorosa en cualquier circunstancia para todos los que su vida tocó. En estas circunstancias inusuales y confusas, es aún más difícil para la familia de lidiar con eso".

Oakland Denny's Shut Down Due to Crime ... Follows In-N-Out

Another American staple in the food biz is fleeing Oakland because of increased crime ... the only Denny's in the city closed for good earlier this week, continuing a troubling trend.

While Denny's officials reportedly wouldn't speak on camera, a notice taped to the door cited the "safety and well-being" of employees and guests as the chief cause of the closure -- which sounds a lot like increased crime's become an issue for the 24-hour restaurant.

Employees were reportedly notified of the closure just a day before the 54-year-old Denny's officially shut down ... and the company promised to find the employees positions at other locations if they could relocate.

It'll be a minor commute for Oaklanders to get a Grand Slam at the Emeryville location, a 3-mile difference ... but it's just the latest in a shocking trend of closures precipitated by rising crime in the Bay Area.

This Denny's location had reportedly fallen victim to break-ins-robberies and violent crime ... just like the In-N-Out that's also hightailing it out of town.

As we reported ... In-N-Out's COO Denny Warnick cited crime as the major reason the super popular food chain was heading out of business -- though they'll stay open until late March.
