Richmond Police Department worked throughout the weekend following up on numerous leads and investigating the crimes of violence perpetrated within our community this weekend.
Between Friday and Sunday, Richmond reported eight (8) shooting incidents two fatal with another 10 adults injured as a result of senseless gun violence.
This is a stark reminder that guns are not the solution. “As a community, we must find more constructive ways of resolving conflict with each other,” stated Chief Gerald Smith.
RPD will continue to address violence wherever we find it, and we continue to ask our public, “If you see something, say something.” Anonymous tips are always welcomed.
Anyone with information about these incidents is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (804) 780-1000. The P3 Tips Crime Stoppers app for smartphones also may be used. All Crime Stoppers reporting methods are anonymous. If the information is valuable to the investigation, you may be eligible to receive a cash reward.
