On the afternoon of April 29, 2019, two people were killed in the Wells-Goodfellow neighborhood of North St. Louis. Officers responding to reports of gunfire around 4:15 p.m. found 25-year-old Desha Davis, known as Lucky, and her 27-year-old boyfriend Jonathan Young of St. Charles County dead from gunshot wounds between a car and a van parked on Highland Avenue.

A one-year-old daughter of Desha Davis was found uninjured near the bodies; bystanders or first responders carried the child to safety and she was taken to a hospital for evaluation and released as physically unharmed. Desha’s brother Lee Jackson later described the family’s devastation and urged anyone with information to come forward.

Police canvassed the area but initially reported no arrests, and no charges had been announced in the period immediately following the shooting. Does anyone in the neighborhood remember seeing or hearing anything around 4:15 p.m. on April 29, 2019 that could help this investigation?
