A teenager was killed in a Dellwood, Missouri home after answering the front door. On the night of the shooting in April 2019, first responders arrived at a residence in the 1700 block of Cargill Drive after reports of shots fired at about 9:55 p.m. They found 15-year-old Curtis Marshall inside with a single gunshot wound to the chest; he was taken to a hospital but died of his injuries. No one else in the home was hurt.

Investigators learned Marshall was shot after answering a knock at the front door. Detectives focused on an acquaintance of the victim and identified 14-year-old Jalin Jefferson as the suspect. In February 2020 a judge certified Jefferson to be tried as an adult; he was charged with first-degree murder and armed criminal action, a warrant was issued, and he was ordered held without bond. If anyone knew Curtis, his movements that night, or the people who might have been at the house, please come forward with information.
