ST. LOUIS – A shooting that left 19-year-old St. Louis rapper J4 dead was captured clearly on camera, but the circuit attorney has declined to file charges, raising questions about what led up to the gunfire.
Video posted online shows the moment J4 was shot in a rival’s front yard Saturday. The doorbell video appears to show that almost immediately after J4 knocked on a door, a person came outside with a gun and began shooting.
