When Richmond Police officers responded to the scene on Roseneath Road at approximately 2:07 a.m.
on July 13th, they found Peters deceased.
The incident, which unfolded in the chaotic moments after a dispute reportedly broke out over a cell phone, resulted in a quadruple shooting. In addition to the tragic loss of Terrance C.
