Kansas City Chiefs

Three men are facing federal gun charges in connection with the Chiefs Super Bowl parade shooting after the U.S. Attorney in Missouri says the investigation turned up an illegal gun operation.

The defendants, 22-year-old Fedo Manning, 21-year-old Ronnel Williams Jr., and 19-year-old Chaelyn Groves are not accused of opening fire at the parade ... but instead, prosecutors believe they were part of "illegal firearms trafficking and straw purchases of firearms."

During their investigation into the shooting, police recovered multiple firearms at the scene ... at least two of which they were able to trace back to the alleged illegal gun ring.

One of the weapons, an Anderson Manufacturing AM-15 .223-caliber pistol, was allegedly bought by Manning from a gun store in 2022. He's accused of illegally trafficking dozens of guns.

The second weapon was a Stag Arms 300-caliber pistol was allegedly purchased by Williams for Groves at a gun show in 2023 ... as the latter was too young at the time.

In total, Manning is facing 12 federal charges, while Williams Jr. and Groves were both hit with 4 charges.

None of the men are charged with shooting anyone ... though officials aren't ruling out the possibility that the illegal guns were fired.

In fact, according to court docs, 12 people brandished firearms, and at least 6 fired their weapons during the parade.

"Stopping straw buyers and preventing illegal firearms trafficking is our first line of defense against gun violence," U.S. Attorney Teresa Moore said.

"At least two of the firearms recovered from the scene of the mass shooting at Union Station were illegally purchased or trafficked. We work diligently with our law enforcement partners to keep firearms out of the hands of criminals by investigating and prosecuting those who illegally buy and sell dangerous weapons."

FYI, a straw gun sale is when someone purchases a weapon for another individual.

Travis Kelce isn't sick of Taylor Swift concerts just yet -- the Kansas City Chiefs superstar raved about his girlfriend's latest tour dates in Singapore ... saying it was an "amazing" experience.

The Super Bowl champion -- who was spotted at two of Swift's six sold-out shows in Asia last week -- praised Tay's performance on his "New Heights" podcast with his brother, Jason ... and even though he's seen the same setlist several times, he clearly can't get enough.

Kelce's comments are no surprise -- after all, the guy danced like no one was watching during his appearances ... and the Swifties made sure to show him some serious love as well.

Kelce also gushed over a "cool as f***" greenhouse he visited during his trip ... and it turns out he's not just a zoo dude, he is also a big fan of plants.

Of course, the Traylor romance all came to be after Travis hit up Taylor's show at Arrowhead Stadium back in July ... and the two have written quite the love story ever since.

Travis Kelce took a pause from Taylor Swift on Tuesday to cruise around Los Angeles with a pal -- but don't worry, Swifties ... he was probably on his way to her pad here.

Paps snapped photos of the Kansas City Chiefs star while he was riding in a fancy Range Rover on a sunny afternoon in Beverly Hills ... and as you can see, there was no Taylor in sight for this outing.

Kelce was riding shotgun as his buddy steered ... and, yeah, the back seats were all empty.

The tight end looked pretty stoic without his GF ... rocking a pair of dark sunglasses covering up his eyes.

However, there were several people on the ground near his vehicle who swore it was on its way to see T-Swift -- if you don't know, the pop star's got a sweet pad in that hood ... so he for sure might've been heading in that direction here.

It's probably a safe bet, if we're being honest. After all, Kelce just traveled across the globe last week to see her perform in Singapore -- and the duo jetted all the way back to the States to hit Madonna and Guy Oseary's Oscars after-party in Hollywood Sunday night.

Some thought the couple might skip it all and have a whirlwind Spring overseas -- as Kelce's currently in his offseason and Swift's "Eras" tour is on a month-plus break right now. Alas, they came on back to the States and seem inclined to hang here in L.A. for a bit.

Still no sign of Taylor herself here in L.A. just yet -- but we're sure she'll surface eventually, with or without an umbrella covering her up. Trav seems more chill being photographed.

Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce pueden haber fracasado en hacer su debut en la alfombra roja como pareja en los Oscar 2024, pero al menos se presentaron para una fiesta posterior.

TMZ ha confirmado que la estrella del pop y el semental de la NFL pasaron por la fiesta exclusiva de Madonna y Guy Oseary's post Oscars en una residencia privada en Hollywood Hills el domingo por la noche, donde no se permitían fotos en el interior.

Por supuesto, British Vogue publicó una serie de fotos de estrellas que aparecieron y posaron en lo que parece ser un área designada para sesiones de fotos, la cual tenía varios recortes divertidos, entre otras cosas.

Algunas de las estrellas que fueron fotografiadas incluyeron a Robert De Niro, Matthew McConaughey, Jodie Turner-Smith, Lenny Kravitz, Salma Hayek y otros. Cabe destacar que Taylor y Travis no formaron parte de la alineación de fotos, pero están mencionados como invitados famosos que participaron.

Como dijimos, fuentes con conocimiento directo nos informan que, de hecho, estuvieron allí, aunque parece que hicieron un esfuerzo consciente por no ser vistos o fotografiados, lo cual resulta interesante.

La llegada de Taylor y Travis a Los Ángeles se produce después de los seis conciertos agotados en Singapur como parte de su gira "Eras", que concluyó el pasado fin de semana. Parece que estaban listos para salir de allí y regresar a Estados Unidos, y eso es exactamente lo que hicieron.

Disfrutaron de un tiempo a solas en Asia durante el breve periodo en que Travis estuvo allí, pero obviamente, con su gira en pausa durante aproximadamente un mes, estaban listos para volver a casa.

No han tenido problemas en dejar que su historia de amor se desarrolle en público en ciertos entornos, pero en otros son extrañamente privados, y realmente no tiene mucho sentido.

Recuerda que la cantante apoyó al tight end de los Kansas City Chiefs en varios de sus juegos de fútbol, incluido el Super Bowl, y Travis ha asistido al tour "Eras" de Taylor en cuatro ciudades diferentes. A simple vista, parece que solo se sienten cómodos siendo captados en público en ciertos momentos.

Incluso Taylor parece ser increíblemente reacia a ser fotografiada en ocasiones, llegando al punto de esconderse bajo paraguas para evitar que los paparazzi la capturen, lo cual, nuevamente, resulta muy extraño. En esta fiesta posterior, parece que fue más de lo mismo: una gran preferencia por la privacidad extrema.

Quizás Taylor y Travis han tenido suficiente de los comentarios de todos aquellos opinando sobre cada uno de sus movimientos. ¡El tiempo dirá!

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce may have failed to make their red carpet debut as a couple at the 2024 Oscars ... but they at least showed up for a shindig afterward, albeit on the DL.

TMZ has confirmed that the pop star and the NFL stud stopped by Madonna and Guy Oseary's Oscars exclusive after-party at a private residence in the Hollywood Hills on Sunday evening ... where there weren't any photos allowed inside.

Of course, British Vogue published a bunch of shots of stars who showed up and posed at what appears to be a designated photo-op area -- which had a bunch of fun cutouts, etc.

Some of the stars who were pictured included Robert De Niro, Matthew McConaughey, Jodie Turner-Smith, Lenny Kravitz, Salma Hayek and others. Notably, Taylor and Travis were not part of the photo lineup ... but are listed among the celeb guests who crashed it.

Like we said, sources with direct knowledge tell us they were in fact there ... even though they seem to have gone out of their way to not be seen/photographed, which is interesting.

Taylor and Travis landing here in L.A. comes after T-Swift's six sold-old shows in Singapore as part of her "Eras" tour -- which wrapped up this past weekend. Sounds like they were ready to get the hell out of there and come back stateside ... which is exactly what they did.

They enjoyed some alone time in Asia for the brief period Travis was there -- but obviously with her tour being on pause for a good month or so ... they were ready to come home.

They've had no problem letting their love story play out in the public eye in some settings ... but in others, they're weirdly private, and it really doesn't make much sense.

Remember, the singer supported the Kansas City Chiefs tight end at several of his football games -- including the Super Bowl -- and Travis has seen Taylor's "Eras" tour in four different cities. On its face, it seems like they're only cool being snapped in public at certain times.

Taylor herself even seems to be incredibly averse to being photographed at times -- going so far as to hidey under umbrellas to keep paparazzi from snapping her ... which, again, is so bizarre. Here for this after-party, it looks to have been more of the same ... ultra privacy.

Perhaps Taylor and Travis have had enough of the Dads, Brads and Chads weighing in on their every move? Time will tell!

Swifties are coming to Travis Kelce's defense after he was caught texting during Taylor Swift's recent "Eras" tour concert ... with the message being, give the guy a break!

Check out the video ... you see the Chiefs tight end being filmed by a fellow concertgoer at the Singapore show he went to this week -- and while Taylor was belting out "I Knew You Were Trouble" ... TK was checking his phone, right at the peak of the song.

The person who filmed this seemed to be throwing some shade Travis's way -- by suggesting he wasn't being attentive enough .... with a caption, reading "It's giving supporting bf."

Despite what the TikToker might've been trying to imply here -- T-Swift's legion wasn't biting ... with a ton of people jumping to speak up for Travis ... and rightly pointing out how ridiculous any type of scrutiny or criticism over this really is. Dude's just checking his phone!

A few Swifties even noted that this is the first time that Travis has ever been seen looking at his phone while cheering on his sweetheart.

Besides, we know Travis is a supportive boyfriend -- evidenced by the fact that he's literally there in Singapore right now. As we reported earlier today, Trav was having a great time at the concert -- he was even caught dancing his tail off to Taylor's jams.

There's no denying he's a true fan of the Grammy winner ... remember, Travis attended the "Eras" tour before he and the pop star even got together. And, since getting with her -- he's made a huge effort to be at some of her international tours ... including in Australia.

Clearly, he's a supportive significant other ... and it seems her fans know that quite well. Here's hoping Trav can shake off the shade ... because it really ain't all that deep.

The guy's allowed to look away for a moment, y'all ... it should go without saying.

Patrick Mahomes is leaning into his dad bod era ... going shirtless by the pool during his vacation down in Mexico -- with a couple bebidas in hand, no less.

The Super Bowl LVIII champ and in-game MVP kicked back and relaxed Thursday, lounging around a lavish Los Cabos beach resort in standard gringo attire ... board shorts and a straw hat. The Chiefs QB looked like he was enjoying himself -- with Brittany right by his side.

It's pretty obvious ... Patrick's enjoying some R&R, fully embracing the offseason after a grueling season that culminated in a second straight Super Bowl title. What better to unwind than double-fisting a couple canned beverages ... which is exactly what he did here.

Hard to tell if these are beers or seltzers, but they do look refreshing.

As you know ... Pat's on a Mexican getaway this week with family and friends, and we've already gotten a look at his wife Brittany's bikini bod.

Remember ... BM's nursing a back injury, but she's powering through ... which is a lot easier to do from a resort in Cabo. Patrick and Brittany have their kids in tow ... and they look to be joined by another couple.

Now, Pat's clearly letting it all hang out here ... no shame to his game, nor should there be. The three-time Super Bowl champ also showed off his dad bod during the NFL playoffs, when he went shirtless during the locker room celebration, which went viral at the time.

Patrick defended his physique in the aftermath ... and he's clearly not shy about it here either.

Bueno, eso fue rápido.

Apenas unas horas después de aterrizar en Singapur con un grupo de amigos, Travis Kelce estaba bien plantado en uno de los palcos de Taylor Swift para bailar al ritmo de uno de sus mayores éxitos, en el marco de la gira "Eras".

Mira el video filmado por un fan al interior del Estadio Nacional, donde Kelce se ve gozando en su asiento mientras Taylor canta "Look What You Made Me Do" sobre el escenario.

La estrella de los Kansas City Chiefs aparece balanceándose hacia adelante y hacia atrás y moviendo los brazos y las caderas, sin mostrar signos de jet lag a pesar de haber estado volando desde los Estados Unidos al sudeste de Asia solo horas antes.

Los amigos de Kelce también parecían estar disfrutando del concierto. Ross Travis estaba sentado justo a su lado, disfrutando al ritmo de las melodías, mientras que Harry Clark publicó un video de Taylor canturreando con la leyenda "Go Tay Tay".

Y después de todo, Kelce estaba en el escenario esperando a Taylor Swift para plantarle un gran beso de felicitación a la estrella del pop.

Es la segunda vez en las últimas dos semanas que Kelce vuela por el mundo para ver actuar a su novia, primero viajó a Sydney a fines de febrero para apoyarla.

No está claro cuánto tiempo estará Kelce en Singapur para estar con Swift, o si hay algún plan de pasear por el zoológico. Pero ella tiene conciertos programados hasta el sábado por la noche, y con los Chiefs en el medio de su temporada de receso, parece seguro pensar que estará con ella hasta el fin de semana.

Los dos podrían pasar mucho más tiempo juntos después de eso porque Taylor no tiene más conciertos agendados hasta mayo, cuando volverá a los escenarios.

Well, that didn't take long.

Just hours after landing in Singapore with a gaggle of his buds ... Travis Kelce was firmly planted in a box suite for Taylor Swift's "Eras" tour show -- dancing his face off to at least one of her biggest hits!!

Check out video shot by a fan inside National Stadium ... as Taylor was belting out "Look What You Made Me Do" onstage -- Kelce was getting after it in his seat.

The Kansas City Chiefs star swayed back and forth as he thrust his arms and hips over and over again ... showing no signs of jet lag, this despite flying from the U.S. to Southeast Asia just hours earlier.

Kelce's pals seemed to be enjoying the concert too ... Ross Travis was sitting right by his side groovin' to the tunes -- while Harry Clark posted a vid of Taylor crooning with the caption, "Go Tay Tay."

Afterward, Kelce was waiting for Swift stageside so he could plant a big ole' congratulatory kiss on the pop star.

It's the second time in the last couple weeks that Kelce has flown across the world to watch his girlfriend perform ... in late February, he jetted to Sydney to support her down under.

It's unclear how long Kelce will be in Singapore to be with Swift -- or if any zoo dates are in the works. But she's slated to perform through Saturday night, and with the Chiefs in the middle of their offseason, it seems like a safe bet he'll be around for the weekend.

The two could spend significantly more time together after that as well ... because following her Singapore shows, she's not slated to return to the stage again 'til May.

Brittany Mahomes is proving she's just as tough as her NFL star hubby ... pushing through a fractured back to make sure she and her fam have fun on their Mexico vacation.

The 28-year-old was spotted hittin' the beaches of Los Cabos on Thursday afternoon ... looking no worse for wear despite dealing with a painful ailment.

Brittany -- in a two-piece, green bikini -- was seen building sandcastles with her 3-year-old daughter and another child ... lugging around shovels and pales for the kiddos, ensuring they all enjoyed their day in the sun.

Britt -- who revealed Wednesday she's got a back injury that appeared to stem from her two pregnancies -- seemed to be moving around OK ... fluffing towels and playing with some water while getting dirty in the sand.

Then again, the mom of Sterling and Bronze might have had a little liquid help to manage it all -- as she was seen with an orange-colored cocktail in her hand.

Patrick, of course, was there to provide assistance too ... the Chiefs star was seen taking care of the tykes after they put a pause on their beach day.

Kansas City Chiefs fans literally sacrificed body parts to watch their favorite football team win an NFL playoff game ... because reports say some of them need amputations now.

When the Chiefs beat the Dolphins in sub-zero temperatures at Arrowhead Stadium back in January -- on their way to a second straight Super Bowl win -- dozens of fans who attended the game reportedly came down with frostbite in the aftermath.

Now, the medical director at the Grossman Burn Center at Research Medical Center in Kansas City says the vast majority of those frostbitten Chiefs fans are now being told to schedule amputations.

Among those frostbitten Chiefs diehards ... a man who took off his gloves for 5 minutes to put up a tent in the parking lot outside Arrowhead. HCA Midwest Health shared images of his injured hand, and it's pretty gnarly.

Remember ... the AFC Wild Card playoff game between the Chiefs and Dolphins was played in -4 degree temperatures ... with a wind chill of -27 degrees at kickoff.

The game was the coldest in Chiefs franchise history ... and the fourth-coldest contest in NFL history ... but the weather didn't stop the 70,000-seat stadium from being packed to the gills.

Doctors are advising amputations for about 70% of patients coming into the Grossman Burn Center with frostbite ... while the other 30% have to spend weeks in hyperbaric oxygen tanks.

A Mahomes is dealing with a significant injury -- but it's not the one who gets tackled by 300-pound linemen weekly -- no, it's actually Patrick's wife, Brittany, who revealed this week she's suffering from a fractured back.

The mother of two announced the diagnosis on her Instagram page on Wednesday ... appearing to say not taking care of her body properly following two pregnancies led to the ailment.

"Just your daily reminder," she wrote in an IG story, "once you have kids please take care of your pelvic floor. Seriously."

"From: a girl with a fractured back," she added.

Brittany didn't disclose any further details about the situation ... but she seems to be handling it well despite the apparent severity of things -- even joking that a vacation with her hubby and her children "will maybe make it better?"

Brittany and Patrick welcomed their first child, Sterling, into the world back in February 2021. Nearly two years later, in November 2022, she gave birth to the couple's first son, Bronze.

Travis Kelce apparently had a helluva time down undah last month ... saying this week he loved his trip to Australia to see Taylor Swift -- praising the Sydney zoo ... and the crowd that showed out for her "Eras" tour performance.

The Kansas City Chiefs star gushed about his Feb. 22 visit to see his girlfriend on the latest episode of his "New Heights" podcast ... talking about it all with his brother, Jason Kelce, for around 15 minutes.

He spoke about the huge amount of media attention he received -- noting that cameras surrounded him the second he touched down at the airport.

"You're like the Beatles," Jason joked on pod.

Then Travis got into breaking down his zoo date with Swift ... explaining in great detail about all the fun he had checking out the animals with his boo.

Travis said he got to pet several creatures -- including a red panda -- and fed some, too. He did say, though, that photogs circled over their heads the entire time.

"They helicoptered us," Travis said. "Well, not us -- Taylor. This all because Taylor is the biggest and best thing possible."

Travis also had a ton of kind words for the fans at Taylor's show -- explaining that he thought the Sydney crowd was louder than the one he experienced in Argentina ... something he didn't seem to believe could be possible.

"Taylor's very fond of performing in Australia," Travis added.

The guys also talked about a whole lot more on the pod -- including Jason's retirement from the Eagles ... which the elder Kelce said ultimately came down to he wasn't sure if his body would hold up to the rigors of the NFL season any longer.

At one point, though, when reflecting on the end of Jason's career, Travis began to cry.

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are doing the long-distance thing ... she's singing in Singapore, and even though he's a world away in Philadelphia, he's close to her hometown.

The Super Bowl champ is hanging out in Philly, where his older brother and podcast partner Jason Kelce lives with his family.

Travis got a fresh cut in the City of Brotherly Love, courtesy of celebrity barber Willis Orengo ... who documented their hangout for social media.

Seems Travis has a new haircut and a new nickname too ... Willis is calling Taylor's boyfriend "the big Yeti." They've got to be super close, Willis traveled from NYC to Philly just to give Travis his fresh cut.

Meanwhile, Taylor's overseas doing her thing in Singapore ... where she's playing to sold-out venues in Asia ... but not without some controversy.

Taylor made a couple big announcements at her Sunday show in Singapore ... showing off the cover art for her upcoming album. "The Tortured Poets Department," and announcing a bonus track, "The Black Dog."

Tay Tay's in Singapore all week performing ... and then she takes a two-month break before getting back after it in May in Paris ... so it will be interesting to see if Travis comes to any of her shows in Asia, or hangs back in the States.

Remember ... Travis hung out with Taylor in Australia last month and went to one of her shows before jetting back to Las Vegas to party with his Chiefs teammates.

If Travis wants to check out Taylor's hometown while he's in Pennsylvania ... her childhood home in Wyomissing is just a little over an hour drive away.

Travis Kelce y Taylor Swift se tienen que amar a larga distancia. Ella está cantando en Singapur, y aunque él está a un mundo de distancia en Filadelfia, está cerca de su ciudad natal.

El campeón del Super Bowl está pasando el rato en Filadelfia, donde su hermano mayor y compañero de pódcast Jason Kelce vive con su familia.

Travis tiene un nuevo corte de pelo en la Ciudad del Amor Fraternal, cortesía del peluquero de celebridades Willis Orengo, que documentó la ocasión en redes sociales.

Parece que Travis tiene un nuevo corte de pelo y un nuevo apodo, Willis llama al novio de Taylor "el gran Yeti". Willis viajó desde Nueva York a Filadelfia solo para darle a Travis su nuevo corte.

Mientras tanto, Taylor está en el extranjero haciendo lo suyo en Singapur, donde está tocando a salas con entradas agotadas en Asia , pero no sin cierta controversia.

Taylor hizo un par de grandes anuncios en su show del domingo en Singapur, mostrando el arte de la portada de su próximo álbum. "The Tortured Poets Department", y anunciando una canción extra, "The Black Dog".

Tay Tay estará en Singapur toda la semana actuando, y luego se tomará un descanso de dos meses antes de volver, y después estará en mayo en París, por lo que será interesante ver si Travis viene a cualquiera de sus espectáculos en Asia, o se incorporará de nuevo en los Estados Unidos.

Recordemos que Travis pasó el rato con Taylor en Australia el mes pasado y fue a uno de sus shows antes de volar de regreso a Las Vegas para ir de fiesta con sus compañeros de equipo.

Si Travis quiere ver a Taylor mientras está en Pennsylvania... su casa de la infancia en Wyomissing es solo un poco más de una hora en carro.

A baseball that's roughly a decade old is about to sell for thousands of dollars ... and it's all 'cause Patrick Mahomes put his "John Hancock" on it way back when he was a high school senior!!

The ball was just discovered at a thrift store in Rockwall, Texas last month ... and it's super cool. It features signatures from some of the players who took the diamond in Texas for the Whitehouse H.S. Wildcats during the 2013-14 season.

In total, there are six names scribbled on it ... but, of course, none is bigger than Mahomes -- who put a "#5" next to his autograph when he inscribed the sweet spot.

Leland's just put the piece on its auction block -- and while bidding has started at $2,500 ... TMZ Sports is told it could fetch $10,000 and up!!

While it might sound a little crazy -- considering Mahomes, after all, does play football ... it's actually not the first Mahomes-autographed H.S. baseball that's sold for a wad of cash.

Back in 2020, one that the Chiefs star and the rest of his Whitehouse teammates signed in 2013 netted its seller a whopping $6,510.

Seems like a ton of cash ... but, hey, an autographed baseball signed by Michael Jordan during his high school days did go for $36,000 -- so it doesn't seem to be a bad investment by any means.
