Once again, the grievance mongers in the St. Louis region are calling for a revolution, a war against police.

However,  the “innocent 18 year-old with a sandwich” narrative is not accurate.

Regarding the deceased suspect who physically struggled with and shot at the officer Police Chief Dotson said the man was no stranger to law enforcement

Vonderrit Myers, Jr., at 18 years-old, already had a gun felony charge.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that people claiming to be relatives of the victim identified him as 18-year-old Vonderrit Myers, Jr. His date of birth identified as 1996. (His father also named Vonderrit, born in 1972, has cases listed too.) Vonderrit’s only 18 and already has felony charges as an adult.

He has serious charges on Missouri Casenet.

1422-CR02533 – ST V VONDERRIT DEONDRAY MYERS (E-CASE)
Filing:
THE ABOVE DEFENDANT WAS ACTIVATED ON ELECTRONIC MONITORING HOUSE ARREST/GPS ON JULY 8,2014. EMASS WILL NOTIFY THE COURT IF ANY VIOLATIONS OCCUR.

Vonderrit Myers Jr. had an electronic monitor and was house arrest.

GPS monitoring shows the officers real-time images of where their defendants are, and whether they are abiding by curfews or geographical orders of protection.

The ankle monitor could be how the officer’s attention was drawn to Vonderrit. It could be another reason he had the lopsided run that Chief Dotson mentioned in his press conference.

UPDATE: Here is a court document from one of Myers’s previous arrests.
