In a tragic incident that has left the community in shock, the deaths of three Kansas City Chiefs fans, whose bodies were discovered in their friend's backyard, remain under investigation. Authorities have recently disclosed that early toxicology reports indicated the presence of drugs in their systems, intensifying the mystery surrounding their untimely demise.
According to Alayna Gonzalez, a spokesperson for the Kansas City Police Department, no additional details or reports have been released to the media thus far. She further stated that there are currently no plans to divulge more information at this time. The case continues to be an active death investigation involving both KCPD detectives and the Platte County Prosecutor's Office. They are in regular contact with the families of the deceased individuals as the investigation progresses.
The revelation about the toxicology reports emerged following the discovery of the bodies of David Harrington, Clayton McGeeney, and Ricky Johnson outside their friend's residence. The three spent an evening watching the Chiefs football game at Jordan Willis' rental house before the tragic events unfolded. Two days later, McGeeney's fiancée stumbled upon their frozen bodies while searching for them. Subsequently, she promptly contacted the police.
Although details of the toxicology report have not yet been made public, early information obtained by WDAF and TMZ, citing anonymous sources, suggests that cocaine and fentanyl were found in the systems of the deceased men. However, it is crucial to note that police authorities have not officially confirmed these findings.
Thus far, no arrests have been made in connection with this case. The police have consistently stated that they have not observed or suspected any foul play. Determining the cause of death lies within the jurisdiction of the medical examiner's office, and PEOPLE has reached out to them for further comments.
John Picerno, the attorney representing Jordan Willis, stated that his client remains ignorant of the circumstances surrounding his friends' deaths. Willis anxiously awaits the results of the autopsy and toxicology reports to shed light on the tragic events. Furthermore, Picerno asserted that Willis was unaware of the presence of the deceased individuals in his backyard or their vehicles remaining in the neighborhood between the football game and the discovery of their bodies.
While rumors and speculation continue to circulate, family members like Jonathan Price, Ricky Johnson's brother, are refraining from jumping to conclusions. Price emphasized the importance of relying on facts rather than conjecture, expressing his desire for an accurate understanding of what transpired that night.
As this heartbreaking investigation unfolds, the community mourns the loss of these three young men and eagerly awaits further updates to provide answers and closure for the grieving families. The exact circumstances surrounding their deaths remain unknown, but the dedication of law enforcement to resolving this case serves as a ray of hope amidst the darkness.
