Kansas man wrongfully accused in Chiefs parade shooting found dead

Denton Loudermill Jr., a Kansas man who was falsely accused of being involved in a mass shooting at the 2024 Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade, has been found dead. Loudermill was briefly handcuffed during the chaos that ensued after the shooting but was never charged with any crime. He filed lawsuits against three Republican Missouri state senators and a Tennessee congressman for sharing social media posts that misidentified him as a shooter and an 'illegal alien,' though these cases were dismissed on jurisdictional grounds. The shooting, which took place on February 14, 2024, resulted in the death of a well-known DJ and injuries to over 20 others, including many children. Loudermill's attorney confirmed his death but did not provide details about the circumstances. The family has requested privacy as they mourn this significant loss.
