approached the teen; whether the teen’s mother was there at the time of the shooting; and
whether his gun was out during the encounter.

In the article on STLToday a quote from the deceptive on seen and that was there during the sitution “According to the incident summary, drug enforcement detectives were watching the area Sunday night when they saw several people with guns outside the gas station just after 11:30 p.m.”

The detectives said they pulled into the parking lot in an undercover vehicle and were dressed
in plain clothes but were wearing black bulletproof vests with the word “POLICE” in white
letters on the front and back.

That’s when police said Darryl “quickly walked off” the gas station lot and into a nearby alley,
so they followed him in their car. When they reached him, officers said, they got out of the
vehicle and identified themselves as police.

Police said Darryl ran through a hole in an iron fence and west across the gas station’s
storefront as they chased him. Officers said the teenager tripped over a curb, fell and dropped
a pistol. As detectives approached him, they said, Darryl reached for the gun, and both
detectives shot him.

his nephews and didn’t want to see him in the streets and wanted him to pursue his dreams as
playing ball.”
