J.E.B. Stuart Monument in Richmond vandalized

NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (WAVY) — Police are looking for a person of interest in a deadly shooting last week in Newport News.

On Thursday, Aug. 17, officers responded to the shooting in the 7300 block of River Road — behind the Admiral Pointe Apartments — around 10 p.m. Police found a man with a life-threatening gunshot wound to the torso. He was taken to the hospital, where he died from his injuries overnight.

The victim was identified as 27-year-old Eric Blackshear.

Investigators took out warrants against 24-year-old Donnell A. Howard, of Hampton, for second-degree murder and gun charges. He turned himself in to police earlier this week.

Police say detectives need help to identify a person of interest who was seen with Blackshear just before the homicide and was possibly involved in the shooting.

The person of interest was last seen wearing a gray tank top, shorts and a red hat. If you recognize this man, call Newport News police or the Crime Line at 1-888-LOCK-U-UP.

Then make sure you have your new apartment unpacked for you.— Matt, Downtown Brooklyn (pictured below) Packing up is way easier I’d rather have a mover help me unpack—and if they could add in a professional organizer who could say no!— Lauren, Upper West Side I’ve never met a box I didn’t like I’d much rather have the help unpacking since it always takes me at least a week to unpack after a vacation, let alone moving my whole life. Torture.— Tori, Crown Heights, Brooklyn Let the experts pack up I’m always going to be the first one to ask for packing help. Unpacking is a different story, however, as I ...

Devil's Hole CEDAR GROVE, NJ - Cedar Grove police will soon have more authority to enforce the no swimming rule at Devil's Hole in the township.  Devil's Hole is a ravine in the Peckman River, located behind Foodtown and the apartments on Little Falls Road near Community Park.  It has long been a picturesque place to visit, but has also been a gathering place for young people. "Thoughout the years young people have visited the location," said Township Manager Tom Tucci at the town council meeting Monday . "It seems lately, with the advent of social media, it has become an attractive nuisance with large groups of young and sometimes older people going there."
