St. Louis Hockey Player Tragically Passes Away at 16 Years Old After Fatal Injuries From A Violent Crime
The St. Louis and hockey community is in mourning today after the Blues announced the tragic passing of Colin Brown at age 16 after a violent crime.
This past week, the hockey world was rocked by the news of Colin Brown, a 16-year old St. Louis kid at CBC High School, who was shot by a stray bullet as his family drove him home after a hockey game.
His father acted diligently to get him into care as quick as possible, but unfortunately he has succumbed to the injuries, and has now tragically passed away after such a violent and unnecessary crime.
After the news became official, CBC High School released this statement on the young man:
Now, the St. Louis Blues have announced their tribute to Brown, revealing they will honour him before their next home game on Saturday, while proceeds from their 50/50 raffle will go to Browns family.
This tragedy is one that has hit the St. Louis community hard, with Brown's hockey team sharing this tragic tribute on social media:
You will be missed and remembered.
We take this time to join CBC Hockey, the High School and the entire hockey community in sending our condolences to the family, friends, teammates and classmates of Brown, and want them to know that they will be in our thoughts as they navigate such a difficult and tragic time in their lives.
