On January 1, 2001, David Thompson, a male resident of Chesapeake, Virginia, was found deceased at 1213 Chesapeake Avenue. His death was the result of a gunshot wound, and the Chesapeake Police Department promptly classified the case as a homicide. An investigation into the circumstances surrounding his death was launched in an effort to identify the person or persons responsible.
Despite the passage of time and extensive investigative efforts by law enforcement, no arrests have been made in connection with the murder of David Thompson. The case has since become a cold case, but it remains an open and active investigation. The Chesapeake Police Department continues to seek information from the public that could lead to a breakthrough in the case and bring closure to Thompson's family. Authorities encourage anyone with information, regardless of how insignificant it may seem, to come forward and contact the Chesapeake Police Department or the Chesapeake Crime Line.
