The shooting involved at least two gunmen after a street fight in Richmond's entertainment district, resulting in nine people shot, including two fatalities and seven injured.
- Richmond Police Chief Rick Edwards said a shooting on North 18th Street killed two and wounded seven during a fight early Saturday in Shockoe Bottom.
- A nearby birthday gathering in Shockoe Bottom preceded the shooting, police and local reports say, as people intervened in a street fight before shots were fired.
- Police said there were at least two shooters, complicating the scene, while witnesses heard automatic-sounding gunfire and forensic teams collecting shell casings found cars struck by bullets.
- Family identified the female victim as 23-year-old Genesis Jones, who had come from Petersburg to celebrate a birthday, while detectives review surveillance footage and urge tips to 804-780-1000 or Crime Stoppers.
