John E. Shaw, a 77-year-old resident of west Ste. Genevieve County, was killed in his home, apparently in a struggle with an intruder.

At a press conference at the local sheriff's department last Friday, Stolzer said it was believed the intruder entered through the front door of the Shaw residence. Evidence of a struggle was found in the home.
Shaw's wife managed to escape into a nearby field with a cell phone and was able to call law enforcement. Deputies responded and found Shaw dead inside the home. His wife was found hiding outside the house.
