HAMPTON, Va. — A mother, son and an unnamed 16-year-old girl have been arrested and charged in connection with a Hampton bus stop shooting that left two teens injured last Tuesday, police say.
Mahaun Barnes-Henderson, 18, Vanity Henderson, 38, and the 16-year-old girl were arrested Wednesday in connection with the shooting, police say.

The teen is charged with assault by mob, police say.

Henderson is charged with assault by mob and contributing to the delinquency of a minor, police say.
These arrests came over a week after an 18-year-old and a 17-year-old were injured in the shooting at the bus stop near the intersection of Mercury Boulevard and Orcutt Avenue.
Police said an 18-year-old was shot and a 17-year-old was grazed during a fight at the bus stop.
Hampton Public Safety Communications received a call about a shooting in the 8600 block of Orcutt Avenue September 9, around 3:26 p.m., police said.
While on the way to the scene, police said a second report came in detailing that a shooting had happened at the 7-Eleven in the 4900 block of W. Mercury Boulevard.
When arriving at Orcutt Avenue, officers found evidence of a shooting but did not locate any victims, police say. At the 7-Eleven, other responding officers found an 18-year-old male with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound.
The 17-year-old walked into a local hospital, according to police.
Based on a preliminary investigation, officers learned that during a fight between multiple people, two people waved firearms around and began shooting, leading to the injuries of both teens.
