Kenneth Spalter, 72, of Pound Ridge, New York, was killed on the evening of February 10, 2017, after being accosted with his wife on the 3800 block of Juniata Street, just south of Tower Grove Park in St. Louis. The couple had traveled to the city to meet a new grandchild. As they exited their vehicle just before 10 p.m., two men attempted a carjacking; Spalter struggled with them over a backpack containing an iPad and was shot in the neck.

Neighbors and his wife performed CPR until first responders arrived, but Spalter was later pronounced dead at a hospital. The Tower Grove Heights neighborhood held a candlelight vigil for the family following the killing. A 16-year-old, Richard Donaldson, was arrested in connection with the incident and charged as an adult with second-degree murder, two counts of first-degree robbery, armed criminal action and other offenses. Reports say Donaldson later pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and related charges; he did not identify the other two individuals involved.

Was anyone in the area that night aware of suspicious activity or those other people?
