Kansas City (AP) — Police in suburban Kansas City say a teenager has been killed and two others injured in a shooting outside a shopping center.

Raytown police said officers were called to the Raytown Plaza shopping center around 8:30 p.m. Tuesday for reports of gunshots. Arriving officers found a male teen with gunshot wounds outside a smoke shop. The teen, who had not been identified by Wednesday morning, died at the scene, police said.

A short time later, officers found two other men with wounds about a block away inside a laundromat at the other end of the shopping center. At least one had been shot, police said. Both were taken to hospitals, but their medical conditions were not known.
