District 5 is investigating a shooting that left a 23-year-old man injured on May 25, 2025 in the 4100 block of Lindell.
At approximately 9:10 p.m., officers received a call for shots fired at the Schnucks grocery store. Upon arriving, they located the 23-year-old man suffering from gunshot wounds inside the store near the entrance.
A preliminary investigation revealed the 23-year-old man encountered two known male suspects while inside the store. Words were exchanged between the three of them before the two suspects exited the store with the 23-year-old following behind them. At some point, gunshots were exchanged between the three of them, and the 23-year-old was struck multiple times.
The suspects fled from the parking lot after the shooting. EMS responded and transported the 23-year-old to the hospital where he was listed in stable condition. An investigation into the full circumstances and timeline of the shooting remains underway.
