Man charged in brother’s murder in Carondelet neighborhood

ST. LOUIS, Mo. (KMOV) - The St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s Office charged 33-year-old Brad Evans with the shooting death of his brother earlier this month in the Carondelet neighborhood. Kenneth Evans was shot and killed near South Broadway and Bates on Saturday, February 4.

Just before 3:30 p.m. that day, police responded to the shooting in the 5600 block of South Broadway. Officers discovered a two-vehicle crash in the intersection when they arrived. The driver of a black Pontiac Grand Prix, a 36-year-old man later identified as Kenneth Evans, was suffering from a gunshot wound to the neck. EMS responded and pronounced him dead.

The prosecutor’s office charged Brad Evans with second-degree murder and armed criminal action. A probable cause statement against him claims he admitted to the killing after he was arrested.
