Good morning, this is Kansas City Local Pulse for Tuesday, June 24, 2025.

We begin with breaking news from City Hall, where leaders are responding to a violent weekend that left six people dead and four others injured. Mayor Quinton Lucas is calling the situation unacceptable and has put a spotlight on several businesses that have become hot spots for trouble, especially the BP Gas Station at East 35th Street and Prospect Avenue. Police have been called there over two dozen times in the past year for everything from assaults to thefts, and the city’s Public Safety Task Force says these problem businesses may face stricter scrutiny and possible closures to help restore safety. Independence reports success with a similar approach, seeing crime fall after shutting down trouble spots on Noland Road.

As we look to the weather, today will feel warm but not overly hot. We can expect temperatures to hover in the low 80s, with a slight chance of a pop-up thunderstorm heading into the afternoon, so keep that umbrella handy if you’re out at lunch or heading to an outdoor event. The heat is expected to ramp up for the rest of the week, so enjoy today’s relative comfort before summer really shows its strength.

For sports fans, there’s a lot happening. The Royals kick off a home series against the Tampa Bay Rays tonight at Kauffman Stadium. First pitch is at 7:40, and the Royals are favored heading into the matchup. Over in soccer, Sporting Kansas City is set to host Charlotte FC in a non-conference game at Children’s Mercy Park. Top scorer Dejan Joveljic and the club look to keep the momentum going and add to their win column.

Turning to football, excitement is building as ticket reservations for the 2025 Chiefs training camp open this morning for season ticket holders, with the general public getting their shot tomorrow. Training camp always brings hope and enthusiasm to every corner of the metro.

On the cultural front, Kansas City is still buzzing from the fifth annual Make Music Day, which filled parks like Brookside Court, the Garment District, and Swope Park’s Lakeside Nature Center with free, live music last weekend. Dozens of local musicians and families joined hands-on workshops, making it one of the most community-driven events we’ve seen this summer.

The real estate scene is steady, with inventory slightly up from last month and homes selling quickly in neighborhoods near the Plaza and Waldo. Job openings in logistics and warehousing are on the rise, with around 300 new positions posted over the last week, especially in the Northland and near I-435.

On a feel-good note, local high schoolers from Lincoln Prep celebrated a big win at the national robotics championship, showing that our young people continue to lead in innovation and teamwork.

That’s your Kansas City Local Pulse for today. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
