The Fenton Precinct is seeking the public's assistance in identifying this less-than-patriotic suspect, who chose to steal gutters from a church on the Fourth of July.

The suspect arrived at a church in the 800 Block of Gravois Road at approximately 6:00 p.m. on July 4 in a newer white or light gray Dodge Durango. He then ripped several sections of gutter off the building, folded them up, and drove away with them.

If you have any information about this suspect, contact Officer Dilks or Det. Cain with the Fenton Precinct at [phone] or through the Bureau of Communications at [phone].

To remain anonymous and potentially receive a reward, you can also call CrimeStoppers at 1-866-371-8477. Please do not leave tips in the comments.

Can you help our detectives identify the subject in these photos? The male subject in the blue-and-white striped shirt is wanted in connection with a larceny and vehicle theft (a white 2015 BMW) in the 7500 block of S. Lindbergh Blvd on June 22, 2026.

The vehicle's keys were stolen from inside a business. The vehicle was subsequently stolen from the business parking lot. The vehicle has since been recovered, unoccupied.

The male in the striped shirt was witnessed stealing the keys. The female subject in the striped dress also appeared likely to be involved in the theft.
Our detectives would also like information on the other subjects pictured, although it is unknown whether those subjects were involved or had knowledge of the theft.

It was just another morning until a quick stop for two people at a Creve Coeur car wash changed everything.

Officer Wells was starting her day with a quick wash before heading to work as a School Resource Officer. Craig Williams was getting his car ready for a long road trip.

Neither of them knew that a few minutes later, being in the same place at the same time would make all the difference.

Watch their incredible story!

Neighbors in the area reported loud disturbances, fights, and fireworks on the property or nearby.

St. Louis County, Mo. (July 6, 2026): St. Louis County Police Bureau of Crimes Against Persons detectives are investigating an officer-involved shooting in the 11000 block of Bellefontaine Road that resulted in gunshot injuries to two juveniles.

On Sunday, July 5, 2026, at approximately 10:15 p.m., officers from the North County Precinct responded to a call for service for a disturbance at a residence in the 1700 block of Prendergast Lane for a large house party.

Officers responded to the area after receiving reports of a large gathering involving more than 100 juveniles attending a pool party, where they were setting off fireworks and causing a disturbance. As officers worked to disperse the crowd, many of the juveniles left the area on foot. An officer in need of aid call was dispatched as callers reported large numbers of juveniles running around the neighborhood and through private property.

Officers also responded to the intersection of Bellefontaine Road and Larimore Road, where large crowds of teens gathered and were discharging and throwing fireworks near police vehicles. While officers worked to clear the area, a St. Louis County Police Department officer perceived a threat from a vehicle and fired his service weapon at the vehicle.

A male and a female victim in the vehicle were struck by gunfire. A third female vehicle suffered a minor injury caused by broken glass. All three were transported to an area hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries. A total of 9 juveniles were taken into custody at the Bellefontaine Road and Larimore Road officer-involved shooting scene.

No officers were physically injured during the incident.

The officer involved is 33 years old with 6 years of law enforcement experience.

This is an active investigation, and preliminary details may change as the investigation progresses. Additional information will be provided as it becomes available.
