Carrie Lynn Szaksz, 35, and her mother, Diane Pulley Crowder, 53, were found dead after a shooting at a home on Phillips Woods Drive in Henrico County, Virginia, on Saturday, July 2, 2022. Officers who responded that morning heard gunfire from inside the residence and the scene developed into a barricade that lasted about nine hours.

During the standoff two adult males escaped the home and spoke with police. A male suspect, identified as 60-year-old Richard Colon Crowder, surrendered after exiting the residence while on the phone with law enforcement. When officers entered the house they discovered Carrie Szaksz and Diane Crowder deceased. Crowder was arrested and charged with two counts of second-degree murder, three counts of using a firearm in the commission of a felony, and one count of malicious shooting, and was being held without bond.

Family members said Carrie and her mother had been trying to escape an abusive situation. Does anyone have information about the family or events at that Phillips Woods Drive address that could help clarify what happened?
