On the night of November 30, 2016, Patricia Pendleton, a 43-year-old Black woman, was killed by a stray bullet inside her North St. Louis County home. The fatal shot came during a volley of gunfire on the 10400 block of Royal Drive, an exchange that police say was linked to an earlier shooting about 9:45 p.m. on the 10400 block of Baron Drive, where a 17-year-old male was wounded in the foot.

Investigators treated the two incidents as connected, interviewing witnesses and potential suspects in both shootings and describing Pendleton’s death as a tragic, unintended consequence of a dispute between two groups. As of the initial reports, no arrests in Pendleton’s killing had been announced.

Did anyone in the neighborhood see or hear anything that night that could help investigators piece together what happened?
