An attempted home invasion in Chesapeake’s Camelot neighborhood on the evening of February 15, 2017, ended in the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Lashorn A. Evans. Police were called to the 3100 block of Gaston Drive shortly after 9 p.m.; Evans, described as a male from DeKalb County, Georgia, was found with gunshot wounds and pronounced dead at the scene. Another person at the residence was wounded and taken to a hospital.

Investigators say Evans and two 23-year-old men, Deonte Harris and Ahkey Riddick, were allegedly part of an attempted robbery. An exchange of gunfire occurred between the intruders and at least one armed person inside the home, during which Evans was killed. Warrants were issued for Harris and Riddick on multiple charges related to armed burglary, attempted armed robbery, aggravated malicious wounding, and related firearm counts, but no arrests have been made and the case has gone cold. A reward is being offered for tips that lead to an arrest.

If anyone has information about what happened on Gaston Drive that night, please come forward to the Chesapeake Police Department.
