ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo. — An investigation is underway after a woman was shot and killed in north St. Louis County Friday night.
She has been identified as 34-year-old Amy Wiseman of Collinsville, Illinois.
Police were called to the 10200 block of Duke Drive around 9 p.m.
When officers arrived, they found a 34-year-old woman suffering from a gunshot wound inside a home. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police said a suspect was involved in an argument with another person at the home. The suspect fired a gun and hit the woman, who was not involved in the argument.
Police said everyone who was involved in this incident knew each other. An arrest has not been made.
Anyone with information about the shooting should call the St. Louis County Police Department at 636-529-8210 or CrimeStoppers at 1-866-371TIPS(8477).
The shooting took place at one of the few homes on the block that’s not boarded up. Just last month, artists and their young apprentices painted murals for some of the homes to brighten up the street.
"It makes the neighborhood look better,” neighbor Terrence Wolfe told 5 On Your Side.
His friend David Whitfield hopes the art will be an inspiration for the children in the neighborhood.
"It's not going to be the immediate that's going to change, it's going to be the future that's going to change,” he said.
