Shooting in Killeen Leaves One Dead, One Injured

Waco, TX — A shooting that occurred Wednesday morning in the 1100 block of W Veterans Memorial Blvd has left one person dead and another injured. The incident took place at approximately 9:43 a.m., prompting a swift response from local law enforcement and emergency services.

Upon arriving at the scene, officers discovered two victims suffering from gunshot wounds — a 66-year-old woman and a 76-year-old man. The woman, identified as Kyong Cha Carcano, was pronounced dead at the scene after lifesaving measures were attempted by responding officers.

The male victim, whose identity has not been released, was initially in critical condition but was later transported to Baylor Scott and White Hospital. Authorities confirmed that he is now in stable condition.

The Killeen Police Department’s Robbery-Homicide Unit is leading the investigation into the shooting, but at this time, no further details about the circumstances have been disclosed. Law enforcement officials have reassured the public that there is no ongoing threat related to the incident.

Detectives are continuing to investigate potential motives and are urging anyone with information to come forward. Authorities have not yet announced any arrests or identified suspects in connection with the shooting.

As the investigation unfolds, the community remains on edge following this deadly incident. Local residents are encouraged to stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity to authorities.
