The sheriff’s office says the violence started around 4:30 a.m. at a mobile home park. After deputies responded to Randall Circle in Exmore, a man began shooting at deputies in their cars with a rifle, striking one in the vest, Sheriff David Doughty said. One deputy was hit in their ballistic vest but is okay. The suspect drove off and was found about 30 minutes later at another home a few miles away. Deputies exchanged gunfire with the suspect after he was found shooting at houses on Parallel Road. The suspect was shot and taken into custody.
Investigators say two women were killed during shootings. One was shot at the mobile home park. The other was found dead at a separate scene on Seaside Road in Nassawadox. In an interview with News 3, Doughty said the woman found at Seaside Road was a family member of the suspect.
The NCSO said they believe the suspect is the same in all three incidents, but they don’t have complete information about a motive or relationships between the suspect and the victims. The suspect and three other shooting victims are being treated at the hospital, the sheriff’s office said. Virginia State Police are also investigating.
