NORFOLK, Va. — A shooting at Church's Chicken on Saturday left one employee dead and another hurt, according to an arrest warrant obtained by News 3.
32-year-old Larry Jackson, whom the arrest warrant notes is homeless, was arrested and charged with second-degree murder, malicious wounding, robbery, grand larceny, and use of a firearm, according to police. He is being held without bond.
Norfolk police responded to the restaurant just before noon Saturday and found a man and a woman suffering from gunshot wounds inside the establishment. Both victims were rushed to the hospital, according to police.
The male victim, 47-year-old Sherod S. Rogers of Norfolk, later died from his injuries. The second victim, a 53-year-old woman, is expected to recover.
