Firefighter/Paramedic Graham Hoffman, 29
Kansas City Fire Department. Kansas City, MO
Firefighter/Paramedic Hoffman died after being stabbed by a patient during a medical transport. Just before 1 a.m., KCFD crews were dispatched to North Oak Trafficway and 152 Highway on a “routine medical call.” KCPD said the call was for a welfare check after a woman was seen walking along the westbound lanes of 152 Highway. When KCFD emergency responders arrived, they reportedly took the woman in the ambulance, but while en route to the hospital, the woman stabbed Firefighter/Paramedic Hoffman in the chest with an “edged weapon or sharp object.” Hoffman’s partner stopped to help and take the woman into custody, but was also assaulted by the patient. Both firefighters were taken to a hospital, with Hoffman originally reported to have suffered life-threatening injuries and his partner reported to have non-life-threatening injuries. Sunday at about 3 p.m., the City of Kansas City released a statement confirming he had died at the hospital from his injuries. At a press conference Sunday afternoon, KCFD said that Hoffman was stabbed in the heart. Hoffman was 29 years old and had served with KCFD since 2022. At this time, the suspect/patient is in custody, KCPD said.
