A 24-year-old St. Louis man has been arrested in the fatal shooting of a retired police captain during a night of looting in the city last week, local prosecutors said Sunday.
Stephan Cannon was charged with first-degree murder in the death of 77-year-old David Dorn, who was gunned down early Tuesday in front of a pawn shop he was trying to protect from looters, St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner said.
Dorn’s last moments were apparently posted on Facebook Live, though the video has since been taken down.
He was a friend of the pawnshop’s owner and would check on the property, including when its burglar alarm went off.
Court documents state that Cannon was one of multiple people seen on surveillance footage entering the store and stealing TVs, local outlet Fox2Now reported.
