Jason Melvin Pruitt, 30, was fatally shot on the afternoon of Friday, November 15, 2013, in the O’Fallon neighborhood of St. Louis. The shooting occurred around 1:40 p.m. in the 4400 block of Clarence Avenue and also wounded another man. Authorities indicated the incident was believed to be drug-related.

A witness described six or seven men on the sidewalk talking with four men inside a red Maxima. Two men exited the car, drew firearms and chased the group into a gangway, where they opened fire. Pruitt was struck in the chest and died from his wound. Police searched for the gunmen who fled in the red Maxima, but no arrests or suspect identifications are reported and the case appears to have no public resolution.

If anyone knew Pruitt, the red Maxima involved, or has information about the shooting in the 4400 block of Clarence Avenue, please share what is known.
