A coordinated ambush in North St. Louis on the afternoon of May 11, 2022, left 35-year-old John Crawford dead. Crawford was a passenger in a compact SUV on the 5000 block of North Kingshighway at about 5:24 p.m. when other vehicles boxed in the SUV. A car stopped in front to block the path and a third vehicle pulled up behind; occupants of the rear vehicle opened fire and then fled.

Crawford was killed at the scene. A 37-year-old woman driving the SUV and a 14-year-old girl were shot and taken to a hospital in critical condition. A 3-month-old baby boy was not struck by gunfire but was injured by broken glass and listed in stable condition. St. Louis Metropolitan Police homicide detectives said more than one gunman was involved. No specific suspects had been arrested at the time of the reports, and investigators asked the public for information about the vehicles or people involved.

Are there any witnesses or neighbors who recall unusual vehicles or activity near North Kingshighway that afternoon?
