A Chesterfield County man is facing two felony charges in connection to a June homicide that occurred at a motel on the city’s south side.

to commit murder and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony.

“Regardless of whether a case is days, months or years old,
Richmond Police detectives tirelessly pursue every lead and work diligently to
uncover new information until those responsible are brought to justice,” said Captain
James Laino with the Major Crimes Division. “Someone who has committed a
crime may think their trail has gone cold, but eventually the right tip or
piece of evidence will lead to their arrest.”
At approximately 9:42 p.m. on June 3, officers were called
to the Midlothian Inn, located at 6523 Midlothian Turnpike, for a report of
random gunfire. They quickly located a room where a woman – Paige E.
Johnson, 25, of the 6500 block of Midlothian Turnpike – had been shot. She
was pronounced dead a short time later.
