Anthony Jackson, 36, a St. Louis–area paramedic with the Northeast Ambulance and Fire Protection District, was shot and killed on October 17, 2017, in Breckenridge Hills, Missouri. Jackson, who had received awards for reviving clinically dead patients and hoped to become a full-time firefighter, was at a home on the 3300 block of Edmundson Road with his childhood friend Troy L. Whitaker when an argument turned deadly.

Investigators say Whitaker retrieved a shotgun, pointed it at Jackson’s face and the weapon discharged, killing Jackson. Whitaker was arrested at the scene and initially charged with second-degree murder, armed criminal action and unlawful possession of a firearm; he later pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter and received a seven-year sentence in early 2019. Jackson’s mother later created the Anthony Jackson Memorial Scholarship Fund to help future first responders.

Did anyone in the Breckenridge Hills area know Anthony or witness the events that night?
