Darrell Price, 16, was shot and killed on the evening of October 6, 2025, in a parking lot on the 3800 block of Laclede Avenue in Saint Louis, Missouri. Police found him after gunfire just after 7 p.m.; he suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene. A 20-year-old man was also shot and sustained non-life-threatening injuries.

Detectives describe the encounter as a prearranged meeting involving people who knew one another. Authorities suspect the gathering was connected to a marijuana transaction that escalated into an apparent robbery and then into deadly violence. The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department took the injured 20-year-old into custody, and an 18-year-old later surrendered to police; detectives are working with the Circuit Attorney’s Office as the investigation continues.

Are there witnesses or anyone with information about who was at that parking lot around 7 p.m. on October 6 who can help clarify what happened?
