RICHMOND, Va. — A man is charged with murder in connection to the shooting death of a woman last month, the Richmond Police Department announced Wednesday.
Porshia Williams, 34, was shot and killed inside a home in the 2700 block of Hull Street Road just before 9 p.m. on Dec. 28.
Shawn Carter, 34, turned himself in on Jan. 9 on charges of maliciously shooting into an occupied dwelling and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Detectives have since charged Carter with first degree murder, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, attempted armed burglary and brandishing a firearm.
Police did not give any information on potential motives for the shooting or the relationship between Carter and Williams. Officers were originally called to the scene for a domestic disturbance, but it was updated to a shooting call.
