On February 2, 2021, a domestic dispute in Norfolk, Virginia, ended with the fatal shooting of 23-year-old Tracy Eugene Bellamy Jr. Bellamy had gone to the 800 block of Wide Street to confront his estranged wife’s boyfriend, identified as Dequan Tasean Copeland. The argument moved outside while Bellamy placed his two-year-old child in his car. As Bellamy was getting into the driver’s seat, Copeland emerged and fired multiple shots, striking Bellamy in the torso.

Despite his wounds, Bellamy returned fire but did not hit anyone, then tried to drive away and crashed into a parked car a few blocks away. Emergency services transported him to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The child in the vehicle was not struck by gunfire but suffered superficial injuries in the crash. Copeland fled the state and was later located and arrested in Arizona; charges were filed in Norfolk.
