KANSAS CITY — The person fatally shot at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl victory celebration Wednesday has been identified, as police held three people in custody and sought answers over the culprits and motive behind the shooting.

The victim was named by her family as Lisa Lopez-Galvan, a popular figure in the city's Hispanic community and beyond.

Three people have been detained by police in connection with the incident, though they have not been identified. The exact circumstances and motive behind the shootings remain unclear as a police investigation continues.

Contreras said he didn't get a good look at the man who was face down on the ground and was then arrested by police.

He was speaking alongside his daughter, Alyssa Marsh-Contreras, who was at the scene and said: "It’s crazy we’ve had more shootings this year than we’ve had days," referring to mass shootings in the U.S.

Chiefs players, who were celebrating Sunday’s overtime win that made them back-to-back champions, responded with shock and disbelief at the incident.
