Family members find 2nd victim dead following KC shooting

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - Police in Kansas City say a shooting over the weekend that killed a teenage girl also claimed the life of a second teen, whose body was found by family members after an exhaustive search.

Police said in a news release that the shooting happened late Saturday night, and police immediately found a teenage girl with gunshot wounds who died at the scene.

Police initially believed her to be the only victim, and a police search using flashlights and drones turned up no other victims.

On Sunday, relatives of the suspected second victim resumed the search and employed the help of a patrolling officer, who found the body of the teenage boy behind a vacant house.
