On the afternoon of March 18, 2015, a rolling gun battle occurred along Interstate 44 in St. Louis and spilled into the LaSalle Park neighborhood. An off-duty officer followed at a distance as the exchange of gunfire continued until a white Dodge Charger stopped near South 9th Street and Park Avenue. Inside the car and nearby, 21-year-old DeJuan Etheridge and 21-year-old Derrick Roberts were found with fatal gunshot wounds; one was inside the vehicle and the other collapsed just outside while trying to flee. Emergency responders pronounced both dead at the scene.

Investigators recovered about 30 shell casings along the westbound exit ramp from I-44 to Hampton Avenue and found cash and heroin in the Dodge Charger, prompting detectives to consider a possible drug-related motive. No arrests or convictions in these deaths have been reported in the years since. Did anyone in the area witness the pursuit or recognize the Charger that night?
