David Kilgore was 46 and working at Beach Pharmacy in Virginia Beach on April 14, 2014, when a man entered seeking prescription Oxycodone. Witnesses say the man, identified as 55-year-old Walter Lane Hubbard, demanded the drugs and, when Kilgore refused, produced a firearm and shot the pharmacist. Kilgore was able to alert someone he was on the phone with that a robbery was in progress but later died of his wounds.

After the shooting, the suspect fled and robbed a second nearby pharmacy, then led police on a high-speed chase during which he fired at pursuing officers. The chase ended after police used spike strips and the suspect crashed the vehicle and was taken into custody. Court filings show charges including first-degree murder, attempted capital murder of a police officer, robbery and multiple firearm offenses; the defendant later pleaded guilty and sentencing materials included jail letters from him expressing little remorse.

What details about Kilgore’s life or that day would help rebuild a clearer picture for readers who remember him or witnessed the incident?
