Police say they believe the male victim is 17-years-old. He was taken to a local hospital for treatment but succumbed to his injuries. The shooting happened around 7:30 p.m. Sunday in the 1000 block of Lasalle Park Court.
The charges add to several similar crimes in the wake of the May 16 storm, where suspects have been accused of trying to steal downed power lines or electrical equipment.
Hosted by the association’s local restaurant owners, volunteers and community partners worked throughout the afternoon at a distribution site at End Times Christian Assembly Church in St. Louis.
