What Does the State Line Change in Terah Moore’s Uber Shooting?
Terah Moore, a Kansas City mother of four, was shot five times during an Uber trip on March 22, 2026. The pickup was in Missouri. The wreck was in Prairie Village, Kansas.
She has given two accounts of the errand. From the hospital, she told KCTV5 she had called the Uber for a Red Bull before work. In a written fundraiser account, she said she was going to a store a short distance from home. Those are different stories. They stay separate.
Where did the ride cross the state line?
KSHB reported that the driver picked up a female passenger in Kansas City, Missouri. The driver then became concerned about a red or maroon 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee. KSHB printed the Kansas plate as 9103ACY.
Just before 7 p.m. Sunday, police began getting calls about shots toward the victim’s vehicle near West 99th Street and Roe Avenue in Overland Park. The pursuit continued north on Roe. KSHB said the victim’s vehicle wrecked near Franklin Park, around West 87th Street and Roe, in Prairie Village. The passenger was struck and hospitalized. The driver was injured in the wreck. Those injuries were not life-threatening. Police said they recovered evidence of “a large number of rounds” at 99th and Roe, at 91st and Roe, and then at Franklin Park. KSHB said the search was still going on Monday.
KCTV5’s first report put the response at about 6:50 p.m. Overland Park and Prairie Village officers answered an armed “rolling disturbance,” described as gunfire between vehicles, at 99th and Roe. One vehicle later wrecked near 87th and Roe in Prairie Village. Officers found two women. One had gunshot wounds described then as not life-threatening. Both were taken to a hospital. That story printed the same Jeep and the plate 9103ACY. Roe Boulevard was closed from 95th Street to Somerset. The story asked anyone with information to call Overland Park police at 913-344-8750 or the TIPS line at 816-474-TIPS.
Five days later, Moore spoke to KCTV5 from the hospital. She said the driver noticed a burgundy Jeep Grand Cherokee shortly after Moore got in. Moore said the driver told her, “I think I’m getting followed.” Moore said she tried to help the driver get away through side streets. They crossed railroad tracks with a train approaching. The driver turned onto Roe Avenue near Franklin Park, and the gunfire started. Moore said bullets hit her neck, chest, arm, and leg. She still did not know who was following them, or why. She said she was leaving the city. The hospital story printed the plate as 910-3-ACY.
Moore described the end of the ride this way: “Our car flipped over and they still was shooting while the car was shooting over, while it was burning up and everything.”
What do the Missouri and Kansas locations change?
The reporting supports three location facts. The pickup was in Kansas City, Missouri. Moore wrote that the chase led “onto the highway and into Kansas,” and that the shooting started as they exited. Shots were then reported in Overland Park, and the wreck was near Franklin Park in Prairie Village. Overland Park police and Prairie Village police both responded.
That is what the state line changes in these accounts. It identifies the departments that worked the scene. It identifies where the shots were reported. It shows that the ride crossed from Missouri into Kansas before the shooting.
The same stories do not say which state’s insurance rules apply. They do not pick a court. They do not say which transportation-network statute would control a claim. A Missouri pickup and a Kansas wreck can raise those questions. These articles do not answer them.
What did Moore and Uber say?
Uber told KCTV5: “This brazen act of violence is deeply troubling. We have reached out to the rider and driver to check in with them, and are wishing them a full recovery. We are standing by to assist law enforcement with their investigation.”
In the written account with her fundraiser, Moore said a burgundy Jeep “pulled out of my apartment complex and began to follow us.” She had moved in late February, hoping to build a safe home for her children. After the attack, she wrote, the family was frightened to go back. She asked for help with relocation, moving costs, and short-term living expenses while she recovered. She wrote that she did not have a phone. She also wrote that she was shot five times and that the Uber wrecked. That is her fundraiser account of the same Sunday evening, not the Red Bull errand she described from the hospital.
From the hospital she talked about seeing her children again, including a daughter she imagined playing professional basketball. She urged people to stay alert. Police asked for Ring doorbell or security-camera footage from the area.
What is the case status?
As of KSHB’s March 23, 2026 report, and as of the March 27, 2026 hospital interview, police were still looking for the shooter. Those stories do not report an arrest, a charge, a plea, or a civil case.
A later status was not confirmed from these sources as of November 10, 2026.
