The suspects in the Kansas City shooting are seen arguing in chilling footage captured moments before a shootout left one person dead and 22 injured during the Chiefs Super Bowl parade.

Footage captured on a fan's phone shows two of the juvenile suspects arguing in the background during a heated argument with someone off camera.

The suspect, wearing a red hooded sweatshirt, is seen hurriedly removing his backpack as if reaching for something inside.

While another teen lurks behind him, wearing a beige-brown jacket and what appears to be a black bandana over his face, another teen is also seen wearing a black hoodie with a black school bag.

Separate footage shows the suspect in the black hoodie leaving the scene with his hand covered in blood while holding his face.

Kansas City Police Chief Stacey Graves said earlier this week that investigators believed the shooting was sparked by a personal dispute.

Eyewitnesses told the outlet that the teen carrying the school bag was shot in the face during the fight.

A witness said Friday that one of the suspects was missing part of his jaw after Wednesday's shooting.

Navy veteran Tony Janssens told Fox News Digital how he encountered some suspects as he fled to safety after shots rang out.

'[One of the suspects] turns around and his jaw is shot. He's actually missing his jaw and he's panicking,” Janssen said.

'He doesn't know what to do. He doesn't know what to do. And then his friends are scrambling a bit. They all say, they don't know whether to keep running or help his buddy since he's bleeding now.”

Janssens wasn't sure if the suspect was a victim or one of the shooters, but he followed his military training and kept an eye on the wounded.

Other images also show the teenager in the brown jacket being stopped by bystanders during the parade after the shooting.

Dramatic footage shows the unidentified man being pushed to the ground by heroic fans who chased him.

Father-of-two Trey Filter was seen tackling the man in the brown coat, along with Omaha resident Paul Contreras.

Explaining how he managed to grab the suspected shooter, Trey said: “I turn around, I see a flash and I think to myself, I hope that's him.

“All I remember is that I barely saw the guy and I couldn't believe I caught him. I remember thinking, 'man, I hope that's him.'

Contreras, who attended the event with his daughter Alyssa, was captured on film by his daughter launching himself at the suspect.

“One guy yelled and said, 'Stop him, catch him, tackle him or whatever,'” Contreras recalled, while footage from others showed the actual tackle in real time.

“And he's barely running,” he continued. “And out of nowhere I hear this guy screaming, so I just think, 'Okay, I'm here.'”

The dutiful father continued, “I didn't think about it. It's just a reaction. I didn't hesitate, just do it.'

On Friday it was announced that two teenagers had been charged as juveniles after the shooting.

The suspects, who have still not been identified by authorities, are charged with weapons-related crimes and resisting arrest, according to the Jackson County Family Court division.

“Additional charges are expected in the future as the investigation by the Kansas City Police Department continues,” the Office of the Juvenile Officer said in a statement.

Missouri law requires juvenile hearings to be closed to the public. It is possible that the suspects could be charged as adults if and when they are charged with a crime.

A third juvenile initially believed to be involved has since been determined not to be related to the shooting and was released.

Chief Graves said Friday, “Our investigators have been engaged in this investigation and it continues.

“We will not relent until everyone who may have played a role in these crimes is apprehended so that they will be punished to the fullest extent of the law.”

The shooting outside Union Station occurred despite the presence of more than 800 police officers stationed in the building and surrounding area.

The murdered woman was identified as Lisa Lopez-Galvan, a local radio host and mother of two.

Lopez-Galvan, whose DJ name was “Lisa G,” was an outgoing and devoted mother from a prominent Latino family in the area, said Rosa Izurieta and Martha Ramirez, two childhood friends who worked with her at a staffing company.

The 22 injured were between 8 and 47 years old, half of whom were under 16 years old. Eleven children were taken to a children's hospital, nine of them with gunshot wounds.

All but one of the children had been released by Friday and the last person treated was expected to recover.

Eight gunshot victims were taken to another hospital on Wednesday. Officials there said two were in critical condition Thursday and five had been discharged. Three of the four people were injured in the chaos after the shooting was fired.

At a third hospital, a gunshot victim who was in critical condition was upgraded to serious condition, an official said Thursday afternoon. Four people injured after the shooting were treated and released there.
