A former Team USA synchronized figure skater turned coach was shot and killed in broad daylight during an alleged armed robbery at a Starbucks drive-thru in St. Louis, Missouri.
Gabrielle “Sam” Linehan, 28, was sitting in her car in the city’s Tower Grove East neighborhood just after 10 a.m. Tuesday, when a suspect approached and opened fire, according to a probable cause statement obtained by the New York Post.
Police identified the suspect as 58-year-old Keith Lamon Brown, FOX 2 reported.
Surveillance footage released by the St. Louis Police Department showed Brown wearing a high-visibility vest and helmet around the time of the shooting.

Authorities allege Brown stole several of Linehan’s bank cards and her driver’s license before fleeing the scene. Linehan was transported to a nearby hospital, where she was pronounced dead, the Post reported.
Linehan represented U.S. Figure Skating as a member of St. Louis Synergy’s junior team, which earned a silver medal at the 2014 U.S. Synchronized Skating Championships, according to KSDK.
Linehan’s team later paid tribute to the beloved athlete and coach at the Metro Edge Skating Club in an emotional Instagram post, calling her “a cherished skater, coach, mentor, and friend” whose impact stretched far beyond the rink.
“A dedicated leader, Coach Sam devoted time and heart to supporting and developing skaters while instilling the values of discipline, teamwork, integrity, and resilience,” the team wrote.

Today in History revisits the Sunday, July 7, 1940, edition of the Grand Forks Herald and highlights a story of five children being sent to Grand Forks who were fleeing the Blitzkrieg-threatened British Isles.
Five children, fleeing the blitzkrieg-threatened British Isles, will arrive in Grand Forks soon.
The five—two boys and three girls—are from Edinburgh, Scotland, and are second cousins of Rev. W. Murray Allan, minister of the Plymouth Congregational church. They will live at the Allan home.
Mr. Allan said the boys were from one family and the girls from another. Ten days ago Mr. Allan received a cable from the parents, whom he has not seen in 25 years, asking if he would care for them.
Although he has not had definite word, Mr. Allan said he presumed the children are en route to the United States now. He also has been in touch with the American Committee for European Children.
The children coming here are believed to be the first war refugees who will reach North Dakota. Several other Grand Forks families are reported considering offering their homes to British children.
