Robert Burrow was a 20-year-old African American man from East St. Louis, Illinois, who was shot to death on June 24, 2015. He was found with multiple gunshot wounds; the death was treated as suspicious and investigated by the East St. Louis Police Department and other agencies.

Investigators said the shooting appeared to be a targeted, premeditated attack. Witnesses reported hearing gunshots and seeing a vehicle speed away from the scene, which produced leads. A 22-year-old East St. Louis man believed to have had a prior altercation with Burrow was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and unlawful use of a weapon. Prosecutors presented forensic evidence and witness testimony at trial, and the defendant was found guilty and sentenced.

Robert’s family attended court hearings and pushed for a thorough investigation. His death prompted local calls for more community policing and violence prevention. Does anyone have information about Robert, the scene that night, or the vehicle witnesses described?
