Jerrod Montrell Brown, 30, was shot dead in the pre-dawn hours of March 28, 2017, near the intersection of Quash Street and Foley Street in Hampton, Virginia. Police say gunfire was heard around 1:59 a.m.; officers found Brown lying in the roadway with a gunshot wound to his head and he was pronounced dead at the scene. Hampton Police classified the death as a homicide and opened an investigation as the city’s first killing of that year.

Brown’s family — including his wife, daughter, parents and four brothers — were notified the same morning. His mother, Joyce Brown, said he had recently moved back to Hampton from North Carolina and was reportedly trying to turn his life around. No arrests have been announced and authorities have not released information about suspects; the case remains unsolved and under investigation.
