Richmond police are investigating a shooting that killed one man and injured two others this evening, a police lieutenant said.

Officers responded to a ShotSpotter activation in the 4600 block of Overend Avenue at around 5 p.m., police Lt. Andre Hill said.

Responding officers found three men in their 20s suffering from gunshot wounds and they were taken to a hospital.

One of the victims succumbed to his injuries about an hour later, Hill said.

The other two victims are expected to survive, Hill said.

Hill said a red vehicle was seen leaving the area but no suspect information was immediately available.
