‘Armed and very dangerous’ Kansas woman wanted for shooting man and child at Missouri hotel
A 24-year-old Kansas woman is wanted in connection with the non-fatal shooting of man and child at a Blue Springs, Missouri, hotel.
Authorities have an active warrant against Samantha Thrasher of Kansas City for felony assault in the first degree after she allegedly shot and injured a 36-year-old man and seven-year-old girl at the hotel.
“Thrasher is considered armed and very dangerous, so do not attempt to apprehend but call the local police if she is seen,” police said in a Thursday statement.
A Blue Springs Police Department (BSPD) spokesperson told Fox News Digital that Thrasher did not know the victims and allegedly shot them after a disagreement.
