RICHMOND, Va. -- Richmond Police arrested a 21-year-old man suspect in a June 2021 homicide on Bethel Street.
Tod’Quan Jones, of Richmond, was arrested and charged with possession of fentanyl with the intent to distribute, weapons violations, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
Other charges against Jones are pending.
Jones was previously named a suspect in the June 2021 shooting death of Keyron Haskins.
“This dangerous individual posed a threat to everyone in the city and the region – and thanks to the excellent work by RPD detectives and the Virginia State Police – he is now in custody,” Richmond Police Chief Gerald Smith said. “Fentanyl is a deadly narcotic responsible for many overdose deaths – and this enormous amount of the drug is now no longer on the streets and a threat to our community.”
Police seized over two pounds of fentanyl, according to officers.
There were three fatal shootingson Bethel Street in 2021.
