Flags to fly half-staff in KS for parade victims

(MSC News)--Flags will fly at half-staff Saturday, as the State of Kansas remembers the life lost, and those injured, during the Kansas City Chief's Super Bowl Victory Parade and Rally.

According to a release from the office of Kansas Governor Laura Kelly, flags in the state will fly at half-staff from sunrise until sunset Saturday in honor of Elizabeth "Lisa" Lopez-Galvan, a resident of Kansas who was killed in the shooting. 22 others, a number of which were children, were injured as the region celebrated the Chief's victory on Valentine's Day in Kansas City.

Kelly, in the release, calls it "senseless violence" that turned the day of celebration into one of tragedy, adding that she joins the state in grieving the death of Lopez-Galvan, a DJ and mother of two, from Shawnee, as well as "all the victims and their loved ones."
