Tiffany Kuhlmeyer was celebrating her 33rd birthday on the evening of July 11, 2009, in the Benton Park neighborhood of St. Louis when she was the victim of a violent stabbing. Between 7:00 and 8:00 p.m. she was attacked in the 2800 block of South Jefferson Avenue, suffering numerous stab wounds. Emergency responders transported her to a local hospital, but she died later that evening.

Witnesses reported seeing a person flee the scene, running south from the location and then turning west into the surrounding neighborhood, but no arrest was made in the immediate aftermath. St. Louis authorities canvassed the area and appealed to the public for leads. The case remains open and unsolved, listed in cold case databases, and a reward is being offered for information that leads to a felony arrest. Her family, including her late mother Barbara Ann Witthaus, has not received closure.

If anyone has information about Tiffany’s movements that evening or the person seen fleeing the scene, please come forward to investigators.
