On the morning of November 4, 2022, officers were called to a home in the 1400 block of North 10th Street in the Columbus Square neighborhood of St. Louis after reports of a shooting. At about 2:00 a.m., responders found 18-year-old Black male Marquis Holt inside the residence with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators concluded the shots were fired from outside the house and penetrated the structure to strike Holt, and that the suspects did not enter the home during the attack. Motive had not been established, and detectives canvassed the neighborhood for witnesses and evidence.

As of early 2024 the homicide division had made no public arrests or named suspects and the case remained open. If anyone in Columbus Square that night saw anything or has information that could help identify who fired into that house, please contact CrimeStoppers or the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department.
