St. Louis Live Police Scanner
St. Louis Metropolitan Police and Fire activity.
St. Louis Live Police Scanner covers St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department and St. Louis Fire Department activity, with case outcomes drawn from Missouri state courts.
The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department covers the City of St. Louis, which is legally independent of St. Louis County — a distinction that confuses a lot of coverage and matters a great deal for knowing which agency has a call and which court will handle it.
Traffic coverage follows I-64, I-55, I-44 and I-70, and the Mississippi River bridges that connect the metro to Illinois. An incident on one of the bridges affects traffic across two states.
The St. Louis Fire Department covers fire and EMS in the city. Missouri court records supply the charging and case-outcome information that lets coverage follow a case through to its resolution rather than stopping at the arrest.
Coverage is published on Facebook, where the page posts throughout the day as incidents develop. Every post is checked against an official source before it goes up — an agency release, a court record, or confirmed reporting from a named outlet. When a detail cannot be verified, it does not run.

What gets published
Active incidents as they develop, major crashes and road closures, missing-person alerts from official clearinghouses, fire and EMS responses, arrests and charging decisions, and court outcomes once they are on the record. Follow-ups matter as much as the original post — when a case resolves differently than it first appeared, that correction runs too.
What does not get published: unverified scanner chatter, names of people who have not been charged, addresses of private individuals, or anything that would interfere with an active response.
