I was at a work event downtown STL a few years back. Left the hotel to walk around and get a bite. Came back, the whole park and block was yellow taped off. Car crashed into the hotel. Somebody pulled up beside the driver and shot him. Watched the coroner wheel the driver away. This was right outside the park across from the STL arch.

But maybe you’re talking about the other Saint Louis.

First it was unsafe to go to the galleria mall in St. Louis. Over the last couple years there have been several shooting fatalities at that particular mall. Now they’re attacking West County Mall.
Slowly but surely they will kill all the balls in the St. Louis area.
The metro area already has had several dead malls. Just look at Chesterfield Mall.

I notice the only thing specifically identified in the text of the article was a white car.

But I bet our first guess as to the description of the perpetrator(s) is correct.

Listening to the Fox local news. No injuries. Only one shot per police. Near the apple store, but some people there were claiming up to 6 shots. Reporter on scene talked with person who saw the shooter -zero description of shooter — so it likely was NOT a white guy. Ha.

Crestwood was killed before the Galleria. Coming soon to Mid Rivers and anywhere Nike shoes and I phones are sold. I buy my New Balance at safer spots, and carry an Android.

Mid Rivers looks like a ghost town when you walk through the mall. It will be gone within 24 months

“...two groups of people got into an argument...”

Isn’t it amazing how apparently random people form into “groups” and then start fighting?
