CLAYTON— Authorities on Tuesday charged a Florissant man with shooting and killing another man.
Leroy McCauley faces first-degree murder and armed criminal action charges. He was in jail Wednesday on a $1 million bond.
Police say McCauley had talked about killing Kyree Chapman prior to the shooting, which happened March 25 at about 12:25 p.m. for a shooting in the 2500 block of Saddle Ridge Drive.
McCauley set up a fake marijuana deal with Chapman to "lure" him out of his home, court records say.
McCauley waited outside the house and when Chapman came out, police said McCauley fired several shots. McCauley then began to leave.
Then he came back and shot Chapman several more times, police wrote in court documents.
Several home surveillance cameras captured the shooting, police said.
