Roosevelt A. McKinney was 33 when he was shot and killed outside the MacArthur Center mall in Norfolk, Virginia. The shooting occurred on April 2, 2022, at about 6:25 p.m.; officers who responded found McKinney outside the mall with a gunshot wound and he was pronounced dead at the scene. Two other people, a man and a woman, sustained non-life-threatening gunshot injuries and were taken to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital.

Investigators identified 39-year-old Gary L. Moore of Virginia Beach as a suspect. Police say the confrontation began inside the mall when Moore and a friend encountered two individuals, one of whom was McKinney’s nephew, and that the interaction escalated. McKinney was shot three times — once in the leg and twice in the torso — and ran across the street before collapsing. Moore was charged with second-degree murder, two counts of malicious wounding, and firearm offenses, and on May 18, 2022 he was taken into custody in Norfolk.

Are there witnesses who were at the mall that evening or anyone with additional details about what led up to the shooting?
