Richmond woman found dead in York County identified
YORK, Va. (WWBT) - A 25-year-old Richmond woman was found shot to death in York County early Saturday morning.
A runner found the body around 6:30 a.m. in the area between Riverwalk Townhouses and the Colonial Parkway entrance of Old Williamsburg Road.
The York-Poquoson Sheriff’s Office identified the woman Sunday as Tyosha Tanique Mitchell. Investigators believe Mitchell was forcibly taken from Richmond and then left on the side of Old Williamsburg Road.
The sheriff’s office says the suspected vehicle appears to be a dark-colored Hyundai Sonata between the years of 2012 and 2016.
“We are asking anyone in the area of the 2700 Block of Bethel Street (in Richmond) between the early morning hours of 12:30 a.m. – 5 a.m. or Old Williamsburg Road between 3 a.m. – 5 a.m. on Saturday to check their home video systems to look for a car matching this description,” the sheriff’s office said Monday.
The York Poquoson Sheriff’s Office is asking anyone with information to call 757-890-4999 or 1-888-LOCK-U-UP.
