Christopher Echols, 28, was killed in a South City shooting in Saint Louis on September 1, 2017. Responders found Echols at the scene with fatal gunshot wounds; a woman was also shot and survived. The incident was described as a double shooting and drew an immediate investigation by the Saint Louis Metropolitan Police Department. The scene was processed for evidence and detectives sought witnesses in the neighborhood.

Friends and family have memorialized Echols, who was known by nicknames including 8 debo and Big Chris. Public reports tied to this incident do not list specific arrests or convictions connected to his death, and separate legal matters involving other people with the same name are unrelated to this homicide. Does anyone have information about that night in South City or recall seeing anything that could help investigators?
