Charleston Detron Newby, 26, died on February 20, 2011, after a police-involved shooting in Virginia Beach near Newtown Road. The sequence began when Newby led officers on a pursuit in an SUV and crashed. Officials say that, after the crash, Newby pointed a firearm at officers; he did not fire his weapon. Officers then shot Newby multiple times, striking him seven times in the abdomen and back.

The shooting prompted a use-of-force investigation that concluded the officers were justified and cleared them of wrongdoing. No charges were filed and no other arrests were made in connection with Newby’s death. The circumstances that remain central to the case are the pursuit, the alleged pointing of a gun at officers after the crash, and the resulting decision to shoot.

Did anyone witness the pursuit or the moments immediately after the crash who can add details about what happened on Newtown Road?
