On the evening of December 23, 2012, Brian James Siler, 36, was shot in the back of the head while walking his dog in the 3100 block of Chippewa Street in St. Louis. He was found lying face down on the sidewalk and later died of the wound, a killing that occurred the night before Christmas Eve and devastated his family and community.

A witness reported seeing a young Black male, about 16 to 19 years old, with a low haircut and wearing a dark puffy coat running from the area around the time of the shooting. No motive has been established, no arrests have been made, and the case remains cold. Crime Stoppers has offered up to a $5,000 reward for tips that lead to an arrest.

Did anyone in the Chippewa Street area see something that night or have information that could help bring the person responsible to justice?
