Bridgette Johnson, 58, was fatally shot in the North City area of St. Louis, Missouri, on August 1, 2020. Officers found her suffering from a gunshot wound and she died despite emergency efforts. Her death occurred amid a wave of gun violence in the neighborhood that day; detectives noted another nearby shooting just blocks away in which a man was wounded and survived, and investigators examined whether the two incidents were related.

Community members held vigils and lit candles to honor Johnson’s memory. The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department continued to investigate but has struggled to identify suspects. As of late 2025 no arrests or publicly named suspects had been announced. Anyone who knew Johnson or who has information about the shootings is asked to contact investigators.
