On the afternoon of November 14, 2021, police in Saint Louis responded to a call about a violent incident in the Baden neighborhood. Officers found 39-year-old Quintell Dickerson lying in the roadway on the 8800 block of Lowell Street with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to a nearby hospital but was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Investigators identified a Dodge Ram 2500 conversion van as a vehicle of interest; the van had been seen in the area and was reported to be displaying switched license plates. Detectives urged anyone with information about the van or the events leading up to the shooting to contact CrimeStoppers. Dickerson, born in Saint Louis in 1982, was a father, a brother and a twin sister’s sibling, remembered by family for his smile and his role as a protector and leader in his community.

No suspects or arrests were publicly identified in the immediate aftermath; anyone who knew Quintell or saw the van is asked to come forward.
