On the night of April 30, 2019, in Saint-Louis, Missouri, 18-year-old Trinaty Riley and her 2-year-old son, Kayden Johnson, were killed when three masked individuals with rifles forced their way into the family’s Ferris Avenue home and opened fire. The shooting began just before midnight after someone arrived outside and the front door was opened. Riley grabbed her son and ran toward the back of the house; neighbors heard a volley of gunshots and a car screeching as it left. Responding officers found Riley clutching her son, both fatally shot.

Investigators believe Riley was the intended target. A male friend who was in the home escaped to another room and was not pursued. No arrests have been made, and the St. Louis Metropolitan Police and the FBI are seeking information. The case was included in the Department of Justice’s Operation Legend, and the FBI has offered up to a $25,000 reward for information leading to identification and arrest.

Does anyone have information about that night or about people who were in the Ferris Avenue area on April 30, 2019?
