Teen Faces Adult Court in Deadly Shootout | St. Louis News

A teen accused of orchestrating a deadly shootout that killed rideshare driver Robert E. Williams will face adult court, carrying life sentence risks. Prosecutors say Alexander and another teen planned the ambush via text, leading to a chaotic, gunfire-filled confrontation that left over 100 shell casings scattered around Williams’ car. The grieving mother, Joyce OBrien, is calling it senseless violence, while investigators continue to analyze recovered evidence—including Alexander’s phone and casings from two different rifles. As Alexander’s trial looms, other suspects, including Jayden Johnson—who’s already being tried as an adult—face serious charges in this tragic case.
