SUMMARY: In Hanley Hills, Missouri, residents had long raised concerns about overcrowding and suspicious activity at a home on Bloom Drive. On July 1, 2025, an FBI and local police raid led to the arrest of three individuals, including 46-year-old Matthew Parker. Parker was identified by Creve Coeur police as the suspect in a June 16 PNC Bank robbery, during which he allegedly stole $1,500 and threatened law enforcement and witnesses. The residence lacked a proper occupancy permit, and neighbors reported ongoing disturbances, including people coming and going at all hours and a cluttered yard that required cleanup by county officials.

Neighbors on Bloom Drive wondered how so many people could live in one home. On Tuesday morning, they awoke to the sounds of an FBI and police raid.
