On the morning of June 16, 2025, Alexus L. Foreman, 28, was found in the 900 block of East Liberty Street in the Berkley neighborhood of Norfolk suffering a life-threatening gunshot wound. Police pronounced her dead at the scene around 11:35 a.m. Her 4-year-old son was missing from the scene and an AMBER Alert was issued.

The child was located safe and unharmed in the early hours of June 17 inside a home in the 3900 block of Huntley Way in Virginia Beach. At that location authorities arrested 27-year-old Tyli N. Scott, who was charged with second-degree murder and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony in connection with Foreman’s death. Court filings say Scott and Foreman had been arguing before the shooting and that the child is Scott’s son. Records show Foreman obtained two emergency protective orders against Scott in 2020 and 2021, and a judge denied bond.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who recall activity in the Berkley area that morning or who knew the relationship between Foreman and Scott?
