ST. PETERS, Mo. – A man accused of shooting dead a woman in an attempted robbery in the parking lot of St. Peters Schnucks is still at large.

On Thursday, authorities said Tyrone Miller is believed to be dating his girlfriend Jayana Dobbs. Police also said Miller needed a colostomy bag and may be carrying a bag to hide it.

Earlier this week, the St. Charles County Attorney’s Office charged Miller with first-degree assault, armed criminal activity and attempted robbery. Dobbs is also wanted for questioning on the matter.

The shooting took place around 8 p.m. Friday, March 3, in the Schnucks parking lot at Highway 94 and Jungermann Road.

According to Sgt. Melissa Doss, a spokeswoman for the St. Peters Police Department, the 52-year-old victim climbed into the front passenger seat of her car while her husband finished unloading groceries in the back of their vehicle.

Police allege Miller got out of a nearby silver SUV, opened the passenger door where the woman was sitting, and attempted to take the woman’s purse. Miller then shot her in the face, got back into the silver SUV and drove away.

Miller, 24, is 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighs about 250 pounds. Dobbs, 22, is 5 feet 5 inches tall and weighs about 280 pounds and wears glasses.

Police said both Miller and Dobbs are known to visit St. Louis City, East St. Louis and the O’Fallon, Illinois area. Miller’s last known address was an extended-stay motel in O’Fallon. Anyone with information regarding her whereabouts is asked to contact the St. Peters Police Department at 636-278-2222 or their anonymous hotline at 636-278-1000.

Miller should be viewed as armed and dangerous. Authorities said he had a history of violence, including a 2019 battery charge in St. Clair County, Illinois and a 2018 domestic assault conviction in Franklin County, Kentucky.
