Following the shooting incident during the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl victory parade in February, another individual has been implicated in the crime, bringing the total number of murder charges to three.
The shooting resulted in the tragic death of Elizabeth Lopez-Galvan, with numerous others sustaining injuries. Since the occurrence, law enforcement officials have been diligent in pursuing justice, resulting in the recent charging of a third suspect.
According to reports from TMZ, Terry Young, a 20-year-old resident of Kansas City, now faces charges of second-degree murder, unlawful use of a weapon, and two counts of armed criminal action. Allegedly, Young discharged a firearm multiple times during the event.
Authorities were able to identify Young through a combination of surveillance footage, social media activity, and mobile phone records. Court documents indicate that video evidence captured an individual wielding a weapon during a verbal altercation. Young reportedly revealed his own firearm before approaching the individual and firing.
Investigators linked Young to the crime through his social media presence, notably videos where he is seen wearing a distinctive green and yellow teddy bear backpack, consistent with footage from the parade.

Additionally, law enforcement obtained search warrants for the phones of two other suspects, uncovering a group chat where a number believed to be associated with Young boasted about firing the initial shot.
Furthermore, Young’s Facebook account reportedly contains videos depicting him with firearms alongside other individuals suspected in the shooting.
Young was apprehended on Wednesday, with prosecutors recommending a $1 million cash bond.
Authorities now believe that all perpetrators involved in the Kansas City Chiefs parade shooting are in custody following Young’s arrest.
Notably, Lyndell Mays, Dominic Miller, and two juveniles have also been charged in connection with the incident and await legal proceedings.
