Cara D. Young, identified by the St. Clair County coroner, was fatally shot on January 4, 2020, while seated in the driver’s seat of a vehicle in East St. Louis, Illinois. The shooting occurred about 7:48 p.m. in the 2500 block of Henrietta Avenue, near State Street and North 25th Street. A male passenger in the same vehicle was also shot and taken to a hospital for treatment.

After the shooting, the East St. Louis Police Department requested assistance from Illinois State Police Zone 6 investigators. Authorities have not released details about suspects or arrests, and no further updates have been provided.

Did anyone in the area see or hear anything that night, or does anyone have information about the people in that vehicle?
