Norfolk going a little crazy right now. 14 people shot in the last 5 days; including 3 juveniles, two of which happened during a robbery, an off-duty sheriff, three women, and one that happened on the interstate. A man was killed during the incident with the sheriff, also a 37 y/o man died two days after one of the incidents with the women. That brings them to 34 for the year.
A 19 y/o was shot and killed outside some apartments in the Newtown section of VB, another 18 y/o was injured. That brings them to 15 for the year.

I know it's nothing new, but still insane and disgusting.
Sad bc the city itself actually has some nice architecture and old school charm.
Anyway, another homicide yesterday bringing the total to 199. The 200th homicide is a matter of time. .
200 today unfortunately
