A 16-year-old boy, Jamon Spates, was fatally shot on May 25, 2015, in Spanish Lake, a community in St. Louis County, Missouri. The shooting happened late on a Tuesday as a group was moving from the street into a home on the 1200 block of Redman; shots came from near the intersection of Redman and Lavida Avenue and Jamon was struck in the back. He was found in the family room and taken to a nearby hospital, where he died of his injuries.

The St. Louis County Police Department’s Crimes Against Persons Unit opened a homicide investigation. Several people were present at the scene just before the shooting, but initial reports did not identify any suspects and no arrests, charges, or convictions have been announced. What can readers who were in that neighborhood that night add about what they saw or heard?
