A young man was shot and killed late on the night of May 10, 2022, in downtown St. Louis. Officers were called about 11:30 p.m. to the 1300 block of Market Street, near the Soldier’s Memorial Museum and City Hall, and found 20-year-old Tariq Redden of Florissant suffering from a gunshot wound. First responders found him breathing, but his injury proved fatal and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators cordoned off Memorial Plaza, set up crime scene curtains near a stone monument and searched the surrounding grounds and the nearby museum for evidence. In the days after the shooting police had no suspect information, and as of the latest update there have been no publicly announced arrests or identified suspects. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Homicide Division or CrimeStoppers.
