Marcus Allen, 43, was found deceased inside a home in the 100 block of North Marguerite Avenue in Ferguson, Missouri, following a welfare check on the evening of February 4, 2023. He had sustained a fatal gunshot wound and the scene was treated as a homicide; the St. Louis County Police Department’s Bureau of Crimes Against Persons was asked to lead the investigation.

Born February 20, 1979, Allen was a resident of Marlborough and is survived by his wife, Cindy. A visitation and memorial service were held February 17, 2023, at New Sunny Mount Baptist Church in St. Louis, where friends and family gathered to mourn.

The investigation remains active. No suspects or motive have been publicly identified. Does anyone who was in the Ferguson or Marlborough area on February 4, 2023, have information that could help investigators?
