GRANITE CITY – Two St. Louis residents face the same set of felony charges after a “planned fistfight” in Granite City turned into a shooting. Devon J.L. Kilbert, 20, and Antonio M. Kilbert, 20, both of St. Louis, were each charged on April 25, 2025 with Class X felony counts of aggravated battery with a firearm and Class 4 felony counts of aggravated unlawful possession of weapons. On April 23, 2025, Devon allegedly shot the victim, causing injury and great bodily harm to the victim. While Devon is accused of actually committing the shooting, Antonio was also charged because Devon is reportedly considered “one for who is legally responsible.” Devon’s possession of a Glock 23 handgun, and Antonio’s possession of a Glock 29 handgun, were unlawful as neither individual had a valid Firearm Owner’s Identification (FOID) card or Concealed Carry License (CCL) at the time of the offense.
