On the night of Sunday, November 24, 2019, Victor Gonzalez‑Romero, 30, was shot and killed while sitting in his truck listening to music outside his home on the 5200 block of Louisiana Avenue in Dutchtown, St. Louis. Officers found him unresponsive on the sidewalk near the Carondelet edge; he was pronounced dead at the scene. The assailant also stole Gonzalez‑Romero’s vehicle during the confrontation.

Police identified and arrested an 18‑year‑old, Kai’von De’meze Johnson, and charged him with second‑degree murder, first‑degree robbery, and two counts of armed criminal action. Investigators said three other teenagers were being sought in connection with the carjacking. Gonzalez‑Romero had recently moved to St. Louis from California and is survived by his wife, Teresa Garivai, and three young children; St. Cecilia Parish and neighbors provided financial support to the family after the killing.

Does anyone have information about the stolen truck or the other suspects seen that night?
