At approximately 2:00 a.m. on Monday, Forest Park law enforcement and emergency personnel responded to multiple emergency calls reporting gunfire, a vehicle crash, and cries for assistance near the intersection of Bartlett Road and Watts Road. Upon arrival, responders located a BMW 530i that had struck a tree after leaving the roadway.
Investigators believe the incident involved a shooting that occurred while the vehicle was in motion, leading to a loss of control and the subsequent crash. Emergency crews from Forest Park Fire & Emergency Services and police units quickly secured the area and attempted life-saving measures. Despite these efforts, the driver, identified as Shaunterrio Hudson, succumbed to injuries sustained during the incident.
Preliminary findings suggest that Hudson may have been shot while driving, which contributed directly to the fatal crash.
