Gotta love those "journalists"...a SUSPECT didn't fire shots.

Bannister and Lydia,

That's directly across the street from where I used to work.

Sounds like the KCMO police did it right. They did not “set up a perimeter”, but charged right in after the active shooter. Then they shot him. It’s the only way to lesson the casualties to the innocent in these sorts situations. That and having lots of armed civilians on the scene when the shooting starts.
