On January 8, 2012, two 35-year-old men were found shot to death inside a car parked on the 8900 block of Annetta Street on St. Louis North Side. The victims were identified as LeShaun Holmes and his acquaintance Lonnell Dortch. Investigators reported the shooting appeared to be the result of a robbery. Neither man lived in the immediate neighborhood, and family members have said they did not know why the two were at that location.

Relatives, including Holmes’s sister and Dortch’s niece, have held vigils at the scene to remember the victims and urge witnesses to come forward. The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department and St. Louis Regional Crime Stoppers list the double homicide as an open investigation; no suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced.

If anyone has information about Holmes, Dortch, or why they were on Annetta Street that night, please contact Crime Stoppers.
