## Caption

Retired SLMPD Lt. Joe Crews tells the story of a frightening murder plot that started with information reaching police about a witness who was being targeted.

Officers warned the potential victim to be careful. Then, at about 5 in the morning, someone showed up at his door with a story that didn't add up.

What happened next turned a planned killing into a shootout at the front door, with the would-be killer wounded and left behind by his getaway driver.

Another incredible St. Louis police story from the people who were there.
