‘What I love about Championship parades is the opportunity for a community to unite and celebrate!,’ Eanes said.

‘That will be forever changed, which saddens me. I’m praying for all the victims and their families in Kansas City and hope in time, they can get through this tragedy!’

Following the shooting, Kelce has faced some criticism for smiling for a selfie with a Kansas City police officer.

Kelce was also visibly inebriated at the parade along with many of his other teammates, who were seen helping him stay upright.

Eanes was not the only person in proximity to the Chiefs that posted messages on their Instagram story.

Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Patrick Mahomes, wrote, ‘Shooting people is never the answer. Praying for Kansas City and America in general, this is rough.’

She continued, saying, ‘Highly embarrassed and disappointed in this, Super Bowl wins will never be the same because of this, it’s devastating.

‘Lives lost and people injured during something that was suppose[d] to be a celebration.

‘Horrible and traumatizing. So many prayers going to the families involved.’

Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas offered scant new details on the tragedy early Thursday morning, and apologized for ‘failing to keep everybody safe’ at the family event at a 6am press conference Thursday.

‘I’m sorry that this happened yesterday,’ he said. ‘We worked hard to put on an exceptional parade, we spent millions on it, but we failed to keep everybody safe and that’s something I have great guilt over.’
