Teandre Barbee, 19, of Henrico, Virginia, was killed after being shot in a triple shooting in Richmond’s Whitcomb Court. The gunfire left three males wounded and sent all of them to a local hospital as police began working to piece together what happened.
Officers responded to the 2500 block of Whitcomb Street at around 10:32 p.m. When they arrived, they found three males suffering from gunshot wounds. The victims needed immediate medical attention, and all three were taken to a hospital.
Police said the injuries were serious for two of the victims. Their wounds were considered life-threatening. The third victim had injuries that were considered non-life-threatening, according to police.
Barbee later died at the hospital from his injuries. He was 19. His death made the shooting a fatal incident and left his family, friends and loved ones dealing with the loss of a young man from Henrico.
There was no immediate explanation in the information provided about what led to the shooting or what happened just before the gunfire. Richmond police continue to investigate the case and are working to establish the events surrounding the three victims being shot.
Barbee’s death has added another painful chapter for the people closest to him. His loved ones are now left to mourn his sudden death and remember the life he had before the shooting brought everything to a halt.
The Medical Examiner’s Office will determine the official cause and manner of Barbee’s death. That determination is part of the process as investigators continue examining the circumstances of the shooting.
The investigation remains active, with police working to determine the full details of what happened in the Whitcomb Court area that night. For Barbee’s family and friends, however, the immediate reality is the loss of a 19-year-old whose life ended after the shooting.
