Larry Lewis III

Six people were shot, including a man who died, early Sunday in downtown St. Louis. Police responded around 3:30 a.m. to 10th and Market streets for the report of multiple people shot. That block is home to the Citygarden sculpture park and is about a block north of the Thomas Eagleton Federal Courthouse. After an initial investigation, police say they believe a fight broke out between women in the park. At some point, men joined in the fight with firearms. At least one gun was recovered from the scene, police said. The man who was killed was in his early to mid-20s, according to police. The injured were identified by police Sunday afternoon as four men ranging from ages 18 to 24 and one 21-year-old woman, police said. According to a police spokesperson, the injured victims are from St. Louis city, St. Louis County and St. Charles County. They were taken to area hospitals with apparent gunshot wounds.
