A fatal shooting occurred last year in St. Louis’s West End neighborhood, claiming the lives of two brothers, Victor Blount, 35, and Jeramie Blount, 40. The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department reported that the incident took place on January 14, 2025, in the 1000 block of Hamilton.
Officers responding to the scene before noon found Victor Blount inside an apartment with fatal gunshot wounds. His older brother, Jeramie Blount, was located in a nearby field, transported to a local hospital, and later died from his injuries.
