Graham Hoffman, 29, loved serving his community and was working overtime when Shanetta Bossell stabbed him.

Just days after Bossell was released from prison, she went on to kill Graham Hoffman.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A Kansas City homeowner who says he’d been a victim of thieves repeatedly took matters into his own hands early Wednesday morning. A male, believed to be a teen by witnesses, was shot about 5:15 a.m. near 27th and Askew. Police say he may have broken into more than 30 cars. People who say they called 911 about the break-ins wonder why police at nearby East Patrol didn’t respond until that shooting happened.

The only thing hotter than a ticket for the Bills-Chiefs AFC title game might be football fans' hatred for referees' perceived partiality toward the Chiefs. I caught wind of a penalty trend from Warren Sharp (Sharp Football Analysis) via ESPN and had to see for myself just how rare it was historically. Turns out, Kansas City is in rare air. The Chiefs have gone 11 straight playoff games without committing more penalties than their opponents, the longest streak by any team in the last 30 years. The only teams with longer streaks in playoff history were the 1970-82 Dolphins (18)...

A year-to-date after three Kansas City Chiefs fans were last seen alive, it is still unclear why they died in their friend’s snowy backyard — and authorities have not handed down any criminal charges in their deaths.

Travis Kelce ruffled some feathers with his post-presidential election message.

Some felt Kelce’s post was ill-timed after former president Donald Trump defeated Vice President Kamala Harris to become the 47th president of the United States in Tuesday’s election. “Trav I love you but pls read the room,” someone wrote in the comments.

The owner of the Kansas City Chiefs said Wednesday that he has no issue with kicker Harrison Butker forming a political action committee designed to encourage Christians to vote for what the PAC describes as "traditional values."

The NFL wife apparently angered scores of liberals when her name showed up on an Instagram post from Trump that laid out 20 points from the 2024 Republican Party’s platform.

“At first,” says Kansas City Chiefs Kicker Harrison Butker in an interview with EWTN, “it pushed me away. I was like…ah this is just, this is just not me. It doesn’t go with the world….it’s just like kind of old school traditional stuff. But then I think that also attracted me because it was so different from the world.” He’s talking about the traditional Latin Mass (TLM), a liturgy which the 23-year-old Butker not only attends, but at which he also regularly serves at the altar. “It’s opened my eyes to the tradition of the Faith. You know, with Saint...

Republican Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey on Thursday said he is investigating the office of Democratic Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas after it reportedly “doxxed” Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker in an X (formerly Twitter) post. The alleged leaking of Butker’s personal information came days after he gave the commencement address at Benedictine College in Kansas over the weekend. There, Butker encouraged graduates at the small Catholic college to “be authentically and unapologetically Catholic.” He also spoke positively about marriage and motherhood, but criticized the abortion industry and the LGBTQ movement. Bailey wrote to Lucas in a letter dated...
