On the evening of Tuesday, February 7, 2023, officers in St. Louis responded to a shooting in the Baden neighborhood’s 1100 block of Riverview Boulevard. At about 8:30 p.m. they found a 41-year-old man, identified as Harold Griffin, lying on the sidewalk. He was unconscious, not breathing, and had sustained fatal gunshot wounds.

No arrests were reported in the initial aftermath and detectives asked the public for any information that could help identify those responsible.
