On a summer day in August of 2015, the lives of two young fathers from Richmond, Virginia, were tragically cut short. Larnell Augusta Logan Jr., a 25-year-old Black male, and his friend, Titus Tercell Howard, were discovered deceased on August 25, 2015, inside an apartment in Henrico County. Both men had sustained apparent gunshot wounds, and their deaths were quickly ruled a double homicide by authorities.
The grim discovery was made in an apartment located in the 5500 block of Pony
Farm Drive. The news sent shockwaves through their community, leaving family and friends to grapple with the sudden and violent loss. Larnell, known to some by a nickname, was a father, and his death, along with that of Titus, left a void in the lives of their children and loved ones.
In the immediate aftermath, the Henrico County Police Division launched an intensive investigation into the double homicide. Detectives worked to piece together the events that led to the shooting, seeking to identify a motive and any individuals who may have been involved. The case was entered into the Virginia Cold Case Database, a public resource aimed at soliciting information from the community to help solve unresolved homicides.
Despite the efforts of law enforcement, the investigation into the murders of Larnell Augusta Logan Jr. and Titus Tercell Howard has not yet led to an arrest. The case remains an active and open investigation, with authorities continuing to seek information from the public that could lead to a breakthrough. To date, no suspects have been publicly identified or charged in connection with the deaths of the two young fathers. The passage of time has not diminished the hope of their families and the community that justice will one day be served.
