Glenn Danen Smith, 27, was shot and killed in the parking lot of Ted’s Recreation on Larpenteur Avenue in St. Paul on August 16, 2021. Police responded to multiple reports of shots fired around 12:45 a.m. near Lexington Parkway and Larpenteur Avenue and found Smith in a vehicle in the bar’s lot; paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene.

Investigators say Smith had been drinking at the bar with Kenwan Deshawn Hunter, 29, and another man. A physical altercation reportedly broke out between Smith and the other man after the group went outside. A friend who had come to pick up Smith tried to intervene but was prevented from doing so. After the fight, Smith got into the friend’s Buick and—according to a witness—demanded something from Hunter identified as a gun. As the Buick began to back up, gunfire erupted and Smith was struck; witnesses placed Hunter near the back of the parking lot at that time.

Evidence reported at the scene included multiple spent casings found inside and outside the Buick and a separate trail of casings near the southwest corner of the bar. Does anyone have information about that night or recall seeing activity around Ted’s Recreation shortly after midnight on August 16, 2021?
