Lynchburg, VA, July 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — After a fatal shooting in South Boston, Virginia, the suspect traveled west toward Lynchburg. A Flock LPR notification alerted the Lynchburg Police Department the moment his vehicle entered the city, enabling a rapid traffic stop and arrest.<\/p>\n

Just after 11:30 p.m. on June 19, 2026, South Boston Police Department officers were called to an apartment complex where a man was found fatally shot. Over the course of the investigation, a suspect was identified and arrest warrants were secured on charges of second-degree murder, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.<\/p>\n

Investigators determined the suspect had headed west toward Lynchburg, approximately 80 miles from the crime scene.
