On January 31, 2016, at about 12:52 a.m., 39-year-old Robert Atwood was found with a gunshot wound in the 5800 block of Newtown Arch in Virginia Beach. He was transported to a hospital but died from his injuries.

Virginia Beach Police identified a suspect within days and arrested 38-year-old Christopher Lamont Mitchell, a neighbor who lived on the same block. Mitchell was charged with second-degree murder and using a firearm in the commission of a felony and held without bond. Investigators also asked the public about a dark-colored 1990s four-door vehicle with rear-bumper damage seen leaving the area; witnesses said three people were inside and they were considered persons of interest or potential witnesses.

If anyone knew Robert, the neighborhood, or saw that damaged vehicle that night, please share what was seen.
