On August 23, 2013, 29-year-old Sakinah Myeshia Breathwaite of Chesapeake, Virginia, was found fatally shot in the parking lot of the Newmarket Square Shopping Center in Hampton just after 2:00 a.m. Officers nearby heard a gunshot and discovered Breathwaite with a single gunshot wound to her upper body; Hampton Fire and Rescue pronounced her dead at the scene.

Investigators say the shooting followed a verbal altercation outside The Alley nightclub between Breathwaite and another woman. The other woman, identified as 21-year-old Crystal Evita Harrell of Newport News, reportedly produced a firearm and shot Breathwaite, then fled in a dark-colored Audi. Witnesses provided a vehicle description that was broadcast citywide; officers located a matching vehicle on Aberdeen Road about four minutes after the shot and performed a traffic stop. Harrell was taken into custody and charged with murder and with using a firearm in the commission of a felony.

The motive and full circumstances remain under investigation. Does anyone have information about the altercation that led to this shooting or about movements in the Newmarket Square area that night?
