Richmond police are asking for the public’s help identifying a person of interest after a 23-year-old man was shot and killed last month.

Officers responded around 5:55 a.m. on November 17 after a ShotSpotter activation and multiple 911 calls reported gunfire in the 1400 block of Bissell Avenue, the department said Monday.
