Jason Yates was a 29-year-old African-American man found dead from a gunshot wound in St. Louis, Missouri, on September 30, 2008. The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department investigated the fatal shooting, but the case went cold and is now assigned to the department’s Cold Case Unit for renewed review.

No arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified. Investigators are hoping that advances in forensic technology or new tips will produce leads that were not available during the original inquiry. The unresolved killing has left family and community members without answers.
