Man Charged With Fatally Shooting Woman Through Front Door

ST. LOUIS, MO — Prosecutors have charged 25-year-old Latrail Grant with murder and unlawful possession of a firearm after police say he shot 19-year-old Tyesha Seals in the south city's Gravois Park neighborhood shortly after noon on Sunday.

Grant was one of two men arrested at a house in the 3700 block of Minnesota Avenue after the shooting took place, the Post-Dispatch reports. Police say Grant shot Seals through the door as she fled after an argument. They found her unresponsive on the front lawn a short time later.

Seals was taken to a local hospital where she died.

Later Sunday night, another woman was shot on her front porch less than two miles south in the Dutchtown neighborhood.

As in every case, charges are merely accusations, not proof of guilt.
