In the shadows of Hathaway, where the sirens wail,
A life was lost, another tragic tale.
Maridosa Trail, where the echoes ring,
A maintenance man, now a fallen king.

Clock struck five, the shots did too,
Dreams cut short, skies turned blue.
North County streets, where the stories bleed,
Another name added to the city’s creed.

No suspects, just whispers in the breeze,
A cold case brewing, hearts that freeze.
Detectives dig, but the silence stays,
In the urban maze, where the lost souls play.

Hathaway Village, a name etched in pain,
A life extinguished, but the questions remain.
Gunpowder lingers, the night stands still,
Another chapter written, against its will.

St. Louis Crime Chime: Partnering for a Safer Community

The St. Louis Crime Chime is evolving into a mission-driven organization dedicated to partnering with local public safety agencies and community-focused media, such as The Evening Whirl and Real STL News, to shine a light on social and violence-related issues. Our goal is to provide resources that support both victims and perpetrators of traumatic events, fostering healing and prevention within our community.

Through its St. Louis Crime Chime section. This essential platform empowers residents by highlighting emerging threats and safety concerns, encouraging vigilance and informed decision-making. Beyond reporting, it holds individuals and institutions accountable by keeping arrests and legal proceedings in the public eye, promoting transparency and urging neighbors to protect and support one another.

While the headlines often confront difficult truths, they also serve as a rallying cry for action. By staying informed through reliable sources and official police data, residents can move beyond fear and take an active role in prevention and community-building efforts. Together, we can transform awareness into meaningful change, helping St. Louis write a safer, more hopeful chapter for all.
