On December 21, 2021, a shooting in the West End neighborhood of St. Louis left 51-year-old Lonnie Jackson dead. Officers responding to reports of a gunshot found Jackson inside a residence in the 5500 block of Clemens Avenue with a gunshot wound to the head; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police identified 24-year-old Andre Robinson as a person inside the home who barricaded himself, prompting a standoff with officers. The standoff ended when Robinson surrendered and was taken into custody. The St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s Office later charged Robinson with first-degree murder and armed criminal action in connection with Jackson’s death; prosecutors did not immediately release a motive.

If anyone in the West End that night saw activity at the Clemens Avenue residence or has information about what led to the shooting, please share what is known.
