St. Louis County Man Sentenced to 90 Months in Prison for Carjacking 72-Year-Old

ST. LOUIS - U.S. District Judge Joshua M. Divine on Wednesday sentenced a man to 90 months in prison and fined him $3,000 for carjacking a 72-year-old in 2023.

Kirk Hall, now 25, was one of two men who stole a BMW X5 on July 7, 2023, from a St. Louis County apartment complex. Shortly before 1:00 a.m., the victim parked at the complex. Hall and the other gunman ordered the driver and passenger out. The other gunman then stole the vehicle, taking the driver's cell phone and other personal items. Hall followed in another vehicle. The unoccupied BMW was found a few hours later.

Hall pleaded guilty in November to one count of carjacking and one count of possession of a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence.

The St. Louis County Police Department investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Nichole Frankenberg prosecuted the case.
