On the evening of Sunday, February 15, 2026, 18-year-old William Andre Scott Jr. was killed in a shooting at the Maple Springs apartment complex on Maple Run Lane in Henrico, Virginia. The violence occurred about 7:30 p.m.; Henrico Police found two adult males with apparent gunshot wounds. William was pronounced dead at the scene and a second man was taken to a hospital with critical injuries.

Investigators are treating the double shooting as a homicide. As of late February 2026, no suspects had been identified and no arrests had been made. Detectives are following up on multiple leads and have appealed to the public for information.

Family described William as a driven young man who graduated from Varina High School the previous June and was taking career-technology courses at J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College. A family member said William had been accompanying a friend who was visiting a female acquaintance the afternoon of the shooting.
