An alleged intruder in his 50s was shot and killed Wednesday just before 4:00 a.m. in St. Louis’s Central West End.
First Alert 4 reported that the man allegedly got into a building by “[making] his way up to the fire escape and…into door.” An occupant in the building then shot the alleged intruder.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch noted that responding officers found the suspect deceased on scene.
