Nathan Corey Lavin, 34, was shot and killed in the Dogtown neighborhood of St. Louis on the evening of October 31, 2014. Officers were dispatched about 5:30 p.m. after reports of gunfire and found Lavin on the pavement with gunshot wounds to his neck and arm; he was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead. Two pit bulls that were with him were also shot—one died at the scene and the other later at an animal hospital.

Witnesses described a black male standing near Lavin holding a gun. The suspect reportedly fled in a gold-colored sedan believed to be a late 1990s or early 2000s Buick LeSabre. Lavin’s dark gray Honda Pilot, fitted with a large bike rack, was stolen during the incident. Surveillance images of the suspect vehicles were released and investigators asked for public help; no arrests or convictions were reported at that time.

If anyone in St. Louis saw the Buick LeSabre, the Honda Pilot, or has information about what happened that Halloween evening, please share what is known.
