Davon Cahill, 26, was found dead inside a car riddled with gunfire on a residential street in St. Louis, Missouri, on February 3, 2012. Police classified his death as the city’s ninth homicide of that year; the number of bullet strikes on the vehicle led investigators to conclude Cahill was the intended victim.

The case unfolded amid a period of high homicide rates in St. Louis, with many victims being Black men and certain neighborhoods disproportionately affected by violence. Despite investigations by the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department, the case remains unsolved. Authorities report difficulties finding witnesses willing to speak and say they have not gathered sufficient evidence to identify or prosecute any suspects.

Anyone who knew Davon, was in the area that night, or has information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
