Norfolk Homicides Spark Police Response | Virginia Beach News

Norfolk’s weekend saw three shocking homicides—each involving people who knew each other—sparking alarm but not panic, as police chief reminds residents that crime hit a record low last year. Targeted neighborhoods are getting extra attention, with officers already on the ground doing proactive work. The chief urges caution: steer clear of armed strangers, drink only in safe, trusted settings, and avoid the drug trade, a top motive behind these killings. One teen, a man in his 40s, and another man were all fatally shot in separate incidents over just three days. Community leaders, like a local deacon, say crime is a daily worry—and they’re stepping in to support those caught in the crosshairs.
