On the morning of May 27, 2025, a double homicide in the Walnut Park West neighborhood of Saint-Louis left two men dead. At about 2:50 a.m., officers responded to reports of a shooting and a car crash at Lillian and Woodstock Avenues and found 37-year-old Donovan Whitt of Breckenridge Hills and 24-year-old Shiquan Washington inside a wrecked sedan. Both were shot and taken to a hospital, where they were pronounced dead.

The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Homicide Division opened an investigation, canvassed the area, and appealed to the public for information. A cash reward was offered for tips that lead to a felony arrest.

If anyone witnessed the crash or the shooting, or has information about either man’s movements that night, please share what is known with investigators.
