Randy Lee Jones, 61, was found dead from a gunshot wound in a home on Lancelot Avenue in South Richmond, Virginia, in the early hours of Thursday, January 18, 2018. Police treated the death as a homicide and identified Jones as the victim.

Born July 6, 1956, in Greenville, Mississippi, Jones served in the Army, later worked as a hairstylist and opened Randy & Company in Springfield, Massachusetts, and eventually moved to Richmond where he worked in real estate. Friends remembered him as a traveler, foodie and family man who especially cherished time with his grandson.

Details about the circumstances of the shooting, any motive or possible suspects were not released and no arrests had been announced. Can anyone who knew Randy or who was in South Richmond around January 18, 2018 share information that might help?
