UPDATE: The  Lee's Summit Police Department issued a press release on Monday morning with more information on this incident. 

Saturday evening, Officers were dispatched to an address in the 2200 block of NE Town Centre Boulevard on the report of a shooting. When Officers arrived on the scene, they located an unlocked back door and made entry into the residence. Officers located a single victim inside the home who was suffering from several gunshot wounds. The victim, a 43-year-old male, was transported to a local hospital where he remains in the ICU with critical injuries. Officers worked with the Kansas City Missouri Police Department to identify a 33-year-old female victim who had been kidnapped from the shooting scene, along with a juvenile. The female and a juvenile were located safely in Kansas City, Mo.

That same Saturday night, the Lee’s Summit attempted homicide and kidnapping suspect was located traveling into Johnson County via 50 Highway from Jackson County.   The Missouri State Highway Patrol initiated a traffic stop, with Johnson County deputies assisting, but the vehicle failed to yield. Johnson County deputies deployed stop sticks that deflated the tires, with the Warrensburg Police Department assisting in additional stop stick deployments as the suspect vehicle entered Warrensburg. The suspect continued driving on the deflated tires, failing to yield and traveled back to US 50 Highway, westbound.
