A July 7, 2024 house party in the 1400 block of Rivermont Heights in Martinsville, Virginia, ended in gunfire after a fight broke out among an estimated 100 to 200 people. Nineteen-year-old Iviyan T. Dandridge, a Martinsville resident, was shot and later died at a local hospital; a second victim was wounded and released. Iviyan was reportedly four months pregnant and worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant.

Family described her as compassionate, hardworking, and planning to return to school to become a Registered Nurse. On the night of the shooting she had reportedly stopped briefly at the party to get something from a friend and was an innocent bystander with no involvement in the altercation. Investigators say at least two people fired weapons, have interviewed dozens of witnesses and collected more than 140 pieces of evidence; no arrests or publicly identified suspects have been announced.

If anyone has information about who fired during that fight, please share tips with investigators or Crime Stoppers to help bring justice for Iviyan.
