Retired St. Louis Police Captain David Dorn, 77, was shot and killed on June 2 after he responded to a burglar alarm at Lee’s Pawn and Jewelry. The break-in at Lee’s was tied to the widespread protests and riots following the death of George Floyd.

Other featured speakers at the RNC include another couple from St. Louis — Mark and Patricia McCloskey — who stood on their property with firearms and confronted protesters who claimed that they had only entered the private street because they were marching to Democratic St. Louis Mayor Lyda Krewson’s home.
