Chiefs Fan Arrested in Kansas City After Armed Threat Against Eagles Fans Following Team’s Loss

Kansas City, MO – September 14, 2025 — Kansas City police arrested a Chiefs fan on Sunday evening after he allegedly brandished a firearm and threatened Philadelphia Eagles supporters in a parking lot outside Arrowhead Stadium, shortly after Kansas City fell to Philadelphia in a heated Super Bowl rematch.

The suspect, identified as Derrick Allen Brooks, 34, of Independence, Missouri, has been charged with aggravated assault, making terroristic threats, unlawful use of a weapon, and disorderly conduct, authorities confirmed late Sunday.

According to police, the altercation occurred around 6:30 p.m. in Parking Lot C, as thousands of fans were exiting the stadium following the Eagles’ 20–17 victory over the Chiefs. Witnesses stated that the man, wearing Chiefs gear, became enraged after enduring taunts about Kansas City’s back-to-back Super Bowl struggles. He allegedly retrieved a handgun from his truck, waving it while shouting threats toward a group of Eagles fans celebrating nearby.

Stadium security intervened within moments, restraining the suspect until Kansas City police arrived. Officers recovered a loaded handgun and two spare magazines from his vehicle. No shots were fired and no injuries were reported.

The lot was briefly placed on lockdown as police interviewed witnesses and reviewed Arrowhead’s surveillance footage. Within 40 minutes, the scene was declared secure, and departing fans were allowed to continue leaving without further disruption.

Officials credited both stadium security and law enforcement for their quick response, noting that their actions likely prevented a dangerous situation from escalating. “Fan safety remains our number one priority,” a Kansas City police spokesperson said. “Swift action ensured this threat was contained before anyone got hurt.”

In the wake of the incident, security procedures at Arrowhead are expected to be reviewed, with possible enhancements to post-game monitoring in high-traffic areas.

The arrest underscores the emotional stakes of one of the NFL’s most intense rivalries — and serves as a sobering reminder of how quickly post-game tensions can spiral out of control.
