The teenager shot, killed by accomplices during the slump into cars, says the police, the police say

St. Louis, Mo (KMOV/Gray News)-a 16-year-old was shot in cars early Friday morning.

Mitch McCoy, spokesman for the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department, said 911 has a call for “suspicious people who may collapse in cars”.

According to the surveillance video, a group of six alleged thieves can get out of a vehicle and break into a white Chevrolet suburb before something starts to start shooting weapons in all directions.

The police said one of the suspects shot a 16-year-old accomplice. The teenager screams on surveillance video.

“I run down the stairs and reached for my phone and look at him on the floor and I call the police,” said Robert Casseus, who lives nearby.

McCoy said the group alleged thieves off the teenager in the hospital, where he later died. The authorities believe that the suspects may have been involved in similar crimes elsewhere.

“I can confirm that our detectives work with other nearby law enforcement authorities to determine whether these people are connected to all other cars in the region,” said McCoy.

Less than 40 minutes before this incident, the police from St. Louis County reported that officials were called to an area to a report on thieves that collapsed in cars at about five miles away.
