Jimmy John's employee accused of opening fire on car, shooting 14-year-old girl in leg: police

A dispute at a Jimmy John's restaurant in St. Louis led to a 14-year-old girl being shot in the leg and an employee facing multiple charges. According to police and court records, the incident occurred around 6 p.m. on Saturday near the intersection of Vandeventer and Laclede avenues. The girl was taken to a local hospital and is in stable condition. The alleged shooter, 27-year-old Adam White, who worked at the restaurant, faces charges including first-degree assault, armed criminal action, and unlawful use of a weapon. The shooting reportedly stemmed from a disagreement between the girl's mother and individuals associated with the restaurant. The mother's boyfriend later arrived with the girl, leading to an escalation that resulted in gunfire. Court documents indicate that White had a verbal argument with a former employee, which spilled into the parking lot. As the vehicle drove away, White allegedly fired multiple shots, hitting the girl in the leg. Investigators found ballistic damage to the vehicle's trunk. White initially fled the scene but was later arrested.
