Summary
At 1:20 AM on a busy Fourth of July weekend in Hampton, police responded to a shooting at 29 Ocean Blvd, finding two victims hospitalized. Later, a suspect matching the description of 21-year-old Tyshawn Cooper was spotted at the intersection of P St and Ashworth Ave, pulled out a gun, and shot himself in the head — an autopsy confirmed it was a suicide. An officer fired one shot during the encounter, but it didn’t cause the death. The chaos disrupted local businesses, with one owner calling the holiday a “flop,” while residents voiced growing fears over rising violence. The investigation continues, with no officers injured.
