Edwin Dennard, 46, and his younger brother Alfonzie William Dennard were found dead after a vehicle driven by the brothers crashed into a utility pole and caught fire near Settlers Landing Road and Kecoughtan Road in Hampton on January 21, 2021. First responders who extinguished the blaze discovered both men had sustained gunshot wounds, and the investigation was reclassified from an accident to a double homicide.

Police say Edwin had been named about 30 minutes earlier as a suspect in a destruction of property incident on Oser Lane and was reportedly driving the same vehicle that later crashed and burned.

Anyone with information about the Dennard brothers, their movements that evening, or the Oser Lane incident is asked to come forward.
