Dennis Coleman, a 24-year-old Black man, was shot and killed in the South Norfolk area of Chesapeake, Virginia, on the night of October 9, 2014. He was walking near a dumpster on Fairview Street just before 10 p.m. when witnesses heard multiple gunshots and saw an unidentified person repeatedly firing at him. Coleman was transported to Norfolk General Hospital with life-threatening injuries and was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

The Chesapeake Police Department’s Crimes Against Persons Squad opened a homicide investigation, canvassing the neighborhood and interviewing potential witnesses. The shooter disappeared from the scene and no arrests have been made. The case remains an unsolved cold case and investigators continue to ask anyone with information to contact the Chesapeake Crime Line.

Did anyone in the South Norfolk area see or hear something that night that could help investigators?
