Jahmel Luster, 30, was killed in a predawn ambush on May 5, 2012, in St. Louis’ Wells-Goodfellow neighborhood. Just after 1 a.m., Luster and two companions left a parking lot in the 3000 block of Goodfellow Boulevard and noticed another car following them. Investigators say two men in the trailing vehicle opened fire from inside that car, striking Luster multiple times — in the arm, leg, and face — before his vehicle continued on and crashed into parked cars.

The attack is described as a shooting from a moving car; reporting tied to initial police information did not name shooters, give a confirmed motive, or indicate any immediate arrests. The two companions witnessed the assault and the neighborhood was left with broken glass, damaged cars, and unanswered questions. If anyone has information about the shooting or remembers seeing a vehicle following Luster that night, please share what you know.
