RICHMOND, Va. – Richmond Police are renewing their call for help in locating the person of interest in a Church Hill murder earlier this month.
On Monday, October 21, officers were called to the 1500 block of North 22nd Street for the report of a person shot at around 4:23 p.m.
Officers arrived and found Tahad K. Bailey, 26, of the 2200 block of National Street in the parking lot with a gunshot wound. He was transported to the hospital where he died from his injuries.
Detectives are asking the public’s help to identify a blue-colored conversion van that the person of interest was driving at the time of the incident.
The blue van features a raised-roof and panoramic windows.
Police say they believe the person of interest, described as a black male, may also be in possession of a dog that was spotted at the scene - a blue pit bull.
“We’re hoping this unique combination of the man, the van and the dog will be memorable to someone," said Major Crimes Lieutenant Faith Flippo.
