On the evening of July 8, 2025, police in St. Louis found 19-year-old Andrew Klaus of Imperial, Missouri, dead near a white SUV that had been set on fire in the 3100 block of Vine Grove Avenue. Klaus had a fatal puncture wound to the head and was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators tied his death to another killing that same day after linking Klaus to the earlier shooting death of Kcoree Warren at his Ferguson home.

Prosecutors say Warren had been a key witness in a statutory rape case brought after he reported an assault on his teenage daughter, and that efforts to silence him began with a $12,000 bribery attempt by the suspect’s sister, Lavonda Harmon. Authorities allege Klaus was recruited to kill Warren, fled in the white SUV, then was driven to the Vine Grove Avenue location and executed by co-conspirators who burned the vehicle to destroy evidence. A grand jury indicted Lavor Harmon, Anthony L. Young, and Anthony D. Young on multiple counts including first-degree murder, armed criminal action, and knowingly burning property; Lavonda Harmon was charged with tampering with a witness.

Who knew Andrew Klaus or Kcoree Warren, or has information about the events of July 8 that could help clarify what happened?
