THE FUSE

Jackson County prosecutor Melesa Johnson confirmed the legal action, stating: "Jackson County will not tolerate any criminal activity that targets World Cup visitors, including the international teams that have travelled here to compete. We thank the Kansas City Police Department and our on-call attorneys for their quick work investigating this incident and filing charges immediately. Our office is committed to holding these individuals accountable." Kansas City mayor Quinton Lucas also praised the resolution of an investigation that spanned several states.
