The following is a list of (in theory) every shooting injury and death in the St. Louis area (St. Louis City and St. Louis County) since Mike Brown died on 08/09/2014. This list does not include every report of shots fired. This list does not include any incident involving shots being fired that did not result in an injury or death.
I also did not bother including the race of the suspect or victim because as it turns out the media is reluctant to report on race in shootings and that data is not readily available. However, as I’m sure you’ve noticed, there is one exception to the media’s racial reluctance: when an officer shoots a suspect. Imagine that.
Anyway, I intend to keep this list updated. If you have any additions or corrections, please respond in the comments section and we’ll keep this updated together. I know I’ve probably made mistakes given the various media sources I’ve scoured and the nature of inaccurate media coverage immediately following any crime. It should be noted that the St. Louis City homicide total for the year has been regularly quoted in recent days and that figure does not include totals for the county, nor accounts for injuries resulting from gunfire. Hopefully the list below will be a slightly more accurate accounting of shootings in the region.
- Death Toll: 27
- Injury Toll: 53
- Incident Total: 80

Where is the community outrage when a one year old child is shot in the back? Were is the outrage of Jesse Jackson, Malik Shabazz, Antonio French, Al Sharpton, Maria Chappelle-Nadal and the rest of the press-hounds. What could be more innocent that a baby held in his parents’ arms?

Another great post. Jerry Norman is listed on 8/28 and 8/31 as killed (victim) in North City. I really like your writing. Nice to hear a different view than the very biased media reports. Stay safe out there.

Nah. If I extended this to stabbings all I would have time for is stat keeping. It’s also the reason why I’ve excluded East St. Louis.
