On the afternoon of August 7, 2022, officers in Normandy, Missouri, responded to a report of a shooting in a parking lot on the 7200 block of Natural Bridge Road. Investigators found 18-year-old Misean Hines, a Black male, unresponsive in the backseat of a vehicle with a single gunshot wound; he was pronounced dead at the scene. No weapons were recovered from the immediate vicinity.

The Major Case Squad of Greater St. Louis was activated to assist Normandy police. Detectives canvassed for witnesses and developed leads that included a person of interest who was involved in a separate vehicle crash on Interstate 170; authorities described that connection as promising. No formal charges had been filed in connection with Hines’s death at the time the case was returned to Normandy police for further investigation.

Who in the area might have seen activity on Natural Bridge Road that afternoon or seen the vehicle involved?
