Melvin Whitted Jr., 55, was found shot and deceased inside a car on December 21, 2018, in the 6800 block of Berkridge in St. Louis County. Police who responded to a call at that location determined the death to be a homicide and the St. Louis County Police Department opened an investigation.

That investigation, together with inquiries into other killings in the area, led authorities to a suspect. Jeffrey Tod was later arrested and charged in connection with Whitted’s death; Tod was also accused in the killings of DeAndre Moore and Kenneth Linzie as part of the broader probe.

If anyone has information about Melvin Whitted Jr., his movements that day, or the 6800 block of Berkridge in December 2018, please share what is known with investigators.
