Sports anchor Aaron Ladd announces his departure from KSHB Channel 41

Sports anchor Aaron Ladd is heading home.

Ladd on Monday announced his departure from KSHB (Ch. 41) on Monday with a message on social media.

“Thank you, Kansas City. Yesterday was my last day with KSHB,” Ladd wrote on X. “Very grateful for the love and support you’ve shown during my 4+ years here. As I begin the next chapter of my career, I will always hold a special place in my heart for the city and the memories we created together.”

Ladd, who is a native of Stone Mountain, Georgia, will be working for a television station in Atlanta starting next week.

A 2018 graduate of the University of Missouri, Ladd was hired by KSHB in April 2020 after working for a station in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

“Favorite memory would be covering back to back Super Bowl wins,” Ladd said. “Or Mizzou’s Cotton Bowl win over Ohio State.”
