RICHMOND, Va. — A Richmond jury has convicted two men in a September 2022 shooting that left an innocent 15-year-old girl caught in the crossfire dead.

Tyree Coley, 21, and Savonne Henderson, 24, were found guilty on all six counts, including first-degree murder.

Prosecutors alleged they took part in a drive-by shooting near Gilpin Court on Sept. 12, 2022. Tynashia Humphrey was not the intended target, but was caught in the crossfire as she walked home from the store.

The verdict came after more than 9 hours of deliberations over two days. The trial lasted for four days.

"We are thankful for the time and effort that the jury put into deliberating and rendering a verdict in this very important case. We’re very pleased with the outcome of the trial," Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney Katherine Groover said.

Sentencing is scheduled for Sept. 18 at 9 a.m.

The three other suspects have yet to go on trial.
