Tyree Shamon Carroll Sr., 31, was killed in a shooting on the evening of Tuesday, July 27, 2021. Police were called to the 1900 block of R Street in Richmond, Virginia, around 5:17 p.m.; Carroll was found on the ground with apparent gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Born May 17, 1990, in Richmond, Carroll was a construction worker and a father remembered by family as family-oriented and protective. He graduated from Henrico High School and was described as self-confident and committed to teaching his children responsibility and respect. His mother, fiancée, and several children survived him.

Investigators identified a suspect within days. A 17-year-old male from Henrico voluntarily surrendered at the Richmond Justice Center the Saturday after the shooting and was charged with murder and using a firearm in the commission of a felony; detectives said they were not seeking other individuals in connection with the killing. Does anyone who knew Tyree or who was in the R Street area on July 27 have information to share?
