According to the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department’s probable cause statement, the shooting happened just before 1:30 a.m. in the 4700 block of Goethe Avenue, located in the Princeton Heights neighborhood.

Officers responded to a shooting call and found the victim, Derek Conway, inside a residence suffering from a gunshot wound. Police took Erick Clark into custody, who they believe shot Conway.

Conway was rushed to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead. He was 36.
