Ericelle C. Coleman was 27 when he was found with a gunshot wound on the evening of Wednesday, January 27, 2016, in the 3100 block of the Richmond-Henrico Turnpike in Richmond’s Northside. First responders transported him to VCU Medical Center. He died of his injuries hours later on Monday, February 1, 2016; the Richmond Police Department classified the death as a homicide and noted he was the city’s fifth homicide that year.

Major Crimes Detective Conrad Simms was assigned to the investigation, and authorities appealed to the public for information. Crime Stoppers provided anonymous tip options by phone, text, or their website. Coleman lived on the 3000 block of Moss Side Avenue. Despite those efforts, no suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced; the case is now listed on cold case platforms.

Does anyone who lived or worked in Northside in early 2016 recall details or have information that could help bring answers to Coleman’s family?
