On January 15, 2019, 33-year-old Nicholas Phillips, a Black man, was pushed from a vehicle at a Saint Louis hospital after arriving with apparent gunshot wounds. Medical staff treated him but he was pronounced dead shortly after arrival. The car that brought him then sped away and its location and occupants remain unknown.

Investigators never established where the shooting itself occurred, a gap that has made it difficult to locate witnesses or physical evidence. Despite public appeals, no arrests or publicly identified suspects have been announced, and the case has grown cold. The family continues to seek answers and justice for Phillips.

If anyone has information about where Nicholas might have been shot, the vehicle that brought him to the hospital, or anyone connected to him that night, please come forward.
