CHESAPEAKE, Va. — A man died and two others were wounded in a shooting that unfolded across multiple locations Monday evening, with one victim driven directly to a police precinct and another found dead at a nearby home, Chesapeake Police said. The incident began around 5:35 p.m. and remains under active investigation with no suspect identified.

Officers first encountered the case when a citizen transported an injured person to the department’s Second Precinct. Police and medics provided immediate aid before that victim was taken to a local hospital for further treatment.

Second scene reveals fatal shooting

While officers were still at the precinct, new information led them to a residence in the 600 block of Edinburg Avenue. There, they found an adult male suffering from a gunshot wound.

He was pronounced dead at the scene, confirming the incident had escalated into a homicide investigation.

Third victim arrives at hospital

As detectives worked to piece together what happened, they learned of a third victim who had independently arrived at a local hospital with gunshot wounds believed to be connected to the same घटना.

Police have not released the conditions of the surviving victims or clarified where the shooting initially occurred.

Key Points

• One man killed, two others injured in Chesapeake shooting Monday evening
• Victims surfaced at police precinct, Edinburg Avenue home, and local hospital
• No suspect description released; investigation remains ongoing

Multiple locations complicate timeline

Chesapeake Police have also not identified the victims or provided details on a possible motive.
