Hampton Police Division Tanya Starke 125 B Mariners Cove Hampton

About the Case:

On February 26, 1992, the victim was hanging out with some of her friends. One of her friends, Christoper Hall, a 20-year-old Jamaican black male, was waving a shotgun around and reportedly pointing it at her jokingly and it went off striking her and killing her. Officers were dispatched to an accidental shooting at 1139 hours on this date. The two offenders fled the scene prior to officers' arrival. Warrants were obtained for two individuals concerning this crime. Only one of the offenders was arrested and faced trial for his crime. The other male, Christopher M. Hall, DOB - 12-19-71, was unable to be located and was rumored to have gone back to Jamaica. The warrants against Hall are still active and extradition approved.
