Nicole Lovewine and her partner Detra Brown gathered outside with several neighbors in the Young Terrace community shortly after returning home from get off work on Wednesday.

According to a neighbor next to them, the couple would do this most nights, especially when the weather is good.

When 45-year-old Lovewine and 42-year-old Brown were talking to other adults, about a dozen children were playing nearby. Some people jumped on the trampoline that Lovewyn bought after the closure of a nearby entertainment center.

At about 6 pm, a car stopped and everything changed in an instant. The neighbor said that she was a 42-year-old woman who had lived in the community for more than ten years. She asked not to be named.

The neighbor said that when the car stopped, the back door opened and Lovewine's 19-year-old daughter jumped out. Immediately afterwards, a young man walked out from the side of the co-pilot. The gunfire soon came.

When it was all over, Lovewine, Brown, and another lady-44-year-old Sara Costine-had died. Two other people-Lovewine's daughter and a 39-year-old woman-were injured in the gunfire. Both were taken to the hospital and are expected to recover.

Lovewine's son, the neighbor said that he was 10 or 11 years old and was one of the children playing outside. He ran to his mother's body and lay on it.

The neighbor said that the boy was crying and he begged his mother to get up.

More than four hours later, the police detained a suspect: Ziontay Brian Ricardo Palmer, 19, of Virginia Beach, who was reportedly related to Lovewine's daughter.

Palmer was charged with three counts of second-degree murder, two counts of malicious assault, and several gun charges. He was summoned in the Norfolk General District Court on Thursday and ordered to be released without bail. He declined an interview request from the Virginia pilot.

Police said Palmer was arrested shortly after the shooting occurred near the 800 block of Whitaker Lane around 6pm on Wednesday.

The police said preliminary investigations indicated that the shooting was related to the family.

According to court documents, one of the charges of malicious injury and one of the gun charges were filed in the Juvenile and Family Relations District Court, which handles criminal cases involving relatives or related persons. The rest has been submitted to the ordinary district court.

The bail decision in Palmer’s court documents stated that he had recently returned to the area, but did not mention where he had been or how long he had been away.

Norfolk Police Chief Larry Boone said in an interview at the scene Wednesday night that four victims were shot to death while helping the first victim.

Hampton Road LGBTQ event planner Tiffany Brooks (Tiffany Brooks) said that Lovewin and Brown have been together for more than ten years and frequent Haoshi Bar. Brooks talked to them at the Pride event last summer.

"They are always together," she said.

On Thursday afternoon, Norfolk Mayor Kenny Alexander, Del Jay Jones, Boone and several other city leaders and local priests marched in the community with residents of Young Terrace. Balloons, posters, candles and teddy bears lined up in the area where the shooting occurred.

Boone, who has served as the city's police chief since 2016 and a member of the department since 1989, became emotional when talking about the tragedy. He and some other speakers said that they are particularly concerned about the children who witnessed it all. They were provided with grief counselors on Thursday.

"They may have to walk to school (this morning)," the person in charge said. "Looking at those young children...trying to deal with what they are looking at, it breaks my heart. I am an adult man with 30 years of police experience, and it strikes me deeply. I can only imagine that it will affect those What did the child do."
