No Charges for Missouri Senate Candidate After Reporter Injured at Campaign Event

Missouri Democratic Senate candidate Lucas Kunce won’t be charged after KSHB reporter Ryan Gamboa was injured by flyaway metal during a campaign event at a shooting range.

Clinton County Sheriff Larry Fish in a Monday report said there was no “ill intent” by Kunce or other shooters at the October 22 event on a private shooting range about 30 miles (48 kilometers) northeast of Kansas City, Missouri.

Gamboa felt a pinch and later noticed he was bleeding, according to the police report.
