Suspect Charged in West Cary Street Homicide Investigation
After Richmond Police detectives detained a possible suspect the evening following the shooting on West Cary Street two weeks ago, detectives have now charged the suspect.
After a grand jury indictment last week, Kordell Wall, 19, of Richmond, has been charged with murder and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. His booking photo is not yet available.
At approximately 4:29 p.m. on Wednesday, October 29, officers were called to the 1400 block of West Cary Street for the report of a person shot. Officers arrived and located an adult male, Kwaivon Dejesus, 36, of Richmond, outside of a church suffering from an apparent gunshot wound. He was transported to a local hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.
The investigation indicates the shooting followed an altercation between the victim and Wall.
