On the evening of January 9, 2025, a dispute in the 8300 block of Sunset Drive in Manassas, Virginia, escalated into gunfire that left 22-year-old Calvin Tyshaun Odell Batson dead. Officers arrived at about 6:19 p.m.; the immediate scene was clear because those involved had already left. Batson, a Black man from Woodbridge, was later found being treated for gunshot wounds at a local hospital and died there.

Investigators say two groups exchanged gunfire and then departed in separate vehicles, with one vehicle transporting the wounded Batson to the hospital. Police have indicated the shooting was not random. In the days after the incident, officers identified a suspect, 20-year-old Marlon Osvaldo Bautista of Manassas Park, and on January 13, 2025, he was arrested and charged with second-degree murder and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony.

If anyone witnessed the shooting, saw vehicles or people leaving the Sunset Drive area that evening, or has other information, please share what is known.
