Oliver Windell Reid Jr., 54, was found dead from a gunshot wound to the torso on May 22, 2020, on Princeton Place in Portsmouth, Virginia, across from Maryview Hospital. Police responded at about 2:50 a.m.; Reid was pronounced dead at the scene.

An arrest followed months later. On August 5, 2020, Samantha Ann Barfield, 53, was taken into custody and charged with second-degree murder and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. Authorities have not released details about the shooting, the motive, or the relationship between Reid and Barfield as the case moves through the courts.

Anyone who knew Oliver Windell Reid Jr., his movements that night, or who has information about the events on Princeton Place is asked to come forward.
