Good morning, Overland Park.

Dan Meers, the longtime director of KC Wolf shenanigans at Arrowhead Stadium, is mourning the loss of his wife Cam 11 days ago after her two-year cancer battle—he said he treasures their 11,667 days together and urged fans to support her favorite causes.

The community icon, a 35-year Chiefs Kingdom member, plans to honor her legacy through charitable work rather than direct donations.

General Motors announced Tuesday it will invest $4 billion to expand production at three plants, including the Fairfax Assembly Plant that will build the Chevrolet Bolt EV and start making a gas-powered Chevrolet Equinox SUVs mid-2027 — a plan meant to support American jobs.

Rickey White, charged with killing Kansas City sports journalist Adan Manzano, now faces 15 additional charges including theft, identity theft, access device fraud, money laundering and conspiracy to commit theft+ his bonds exceed $600,000+ as recorded on June 4.

Twenty-seven states— including Kansas and Missouri—filed a lawsuit Monday to block the sale of genetics company 23andMe unless customers consent to transferring their data.

The suit follows 23andMe’s Chapter 11 filing and Regeneron’s $256 million offer and aims to protect consumer genetic privacy.
