On the evening of January 24, 2021, Darrion Rankin-Fleming, 26, and his 7-year-old daughter D’Myah Rankin-Fleming were sitting in a parked vehicle in the 4000 block of Laclede Avenue in St. Louis when an assailant approached and opened fire. Darrion was pronounced dead at the scene; his daughter was taken to a hospital and later died of her injuries. The shootings occurred in the Central West End and left the family and community reeling.

Investigators arrested two men in connection with the killings, Andre Anderson and Javonn Nettles. Court filings indicated one of the suspects and Darrion were acquainted, but authorities did not immediately disclose a motive. A reward was offered for information leading to the suspects’ capture.

Does anyone in the area remember seeing a parked car on Laclede Avenue that night or have information that could help explain what led to this attack?
