Virginia,7/6: Two people were fatally shot and several more were injured in a shooting that took place outside a high school graduation ceremony in Richmond, Virginia, on Tuesday evening, authorities said.
A 19-year-old male suspect was in police custody, Rick Edwards, the acting chief of the Richmond Police Department, said at a news conference Tuesday evening. “We think the suspect knew at least one of the victims,” he said.
