ST. LOUIS, Mo. (KMOV) - It has been over five years since three women were found murdered inside a car in the 4200 Block of John in St. Louis.

“Staffing and funding isn’t the problem in this case, clues are the problem,” Lt. John Blaskiewicz said.

Dominque Lewis, Reeba Moore, and Chanice White were murdered on December 22, 2017. The three women attempted to run away after an unknown suspect broke into their North City apartment, off John Avenue. The women then got into a car outside but didn’t have the keys to get away. Police said the shooter killed all three inside the vehicle.

The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department wants the community to step up to crack the cold case. After the department announced a $15,000 reward last December, no one has yet to come forward with information leading to an arrest.

The challenge now for the investigation is finding eyewitnesses as the homicide unit works to close out roughly 350 open cases.

“It’s always hard when any case goes unsolved,” Lt. Blaskiewicz shared. “In this case, it was three women. Triple shootings are rare in St. Louis so yeah this one is particularly troubling.”

LT. Blaskiewicz said the department’s clearance rate is 76% year-to-date.
