Description
Seven people were shot -- and two of them have died -- after gunfire rang out near Virginia Commonwealth University in downtown Richmond following a high school graduation ceremony Tuesday, according to police and school district officials.
NBC12 is reporting that the two people killed were a Huguenot HS graduate and his father.
Two suspects were taken into custody after the incident, Interim Richmond Police Chief Rick Edwards said at a news conference. It was later reported that one of them, who was held because they were in possession of a firearm, was subsequently cleared of having any involvement.
They currently have a 19-year-old man in custody and he will be charged with 2 counts of Second Degree Murder. Police recovered multiple handguns.
