On the evening of Saturday, August 13, 2022, eighteen-year-old Jessie Crumble-Bullock was fatally shot in Richmond’s Gilpin Court neighborhood after a trip to a corner store. Returning home on St. Paul Street, he was pursued and fired upon; he made it inside his house but gunfire continued. His mother, Jessica Crumble, was hit while trying to shield him. Both were taken to a nearby hospital; Jessica Crumble survived, and Jessie Crumble-Bullock died later that night.

Richmond Police officers arrested a nineteen-year-old Richmond resident, Delmontae Lewis, near the scene. Lewis was initially charged with possession of a concealed weapon and possession of a weapon with an extended magazine. A grand jury later returned an indictment charging Lewis with murder, malicious wounding, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, and shooting into an occupied dwelling; the case was set for jury trial in January of the following year.

Are there details about that evening or the neighborhood that anyone can share to help clarify what happened?
