In the early morning hours of August 2, 2015, 22-year-old Richard W. Owens was fatally shot and found outside a residence in the 900 block of Bagnall Road in Norfolk, Virginia. The shooting occurred shortly after 4:30 a.m. Owens was the father of a young son.

Police linked Owens’ death to a related scene a few blocks away on the 800 block of East Olney Road, where 19-year-old Al’Jae R. Walton was found with multiple gunshot wounds. Investigators concluded the two men were involved in an altercation that escalated into an exchange of gunfire; Walton fled but collapsed nearby and was taken to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital in critical condition.

After his release from the hospital on August 8, 2015, Walton was taken into custody and charged with one count of second-degree murder and one count of use of a firearm in the commission of a felony; he was held without bond. Does anyone have information about Owens, his activities that night, or witnesses to the incident?
