KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The person found dead Sunday at Bay Water Park in South Kansas City was identified Monday afternoon by police as a 14-year-old Kansas City girl named Alexis Kane.
Investigators say someone called police around one on Sunday afternoon with what they referred to as an “ambulance call.” The Kansas City Fire Department responded and paramedics told police a person was found dead inside the waterpark.
Police originally called it a suspicious death instead of a homicide. A mobile command center had been set up at the scene.
“At this time we don`t know the manner of death. We`re leaving that up to the Jackson County Medical Examiner and once that`s done we will determine whether we keep this as a suspicious death or not,” said Sgt. Kari Thompson of the Kansas City Police Department on Sunday.
Police urge you to call the TIPS Hotline at (816) 474-TIPS with any information or details.
