Richmond Police have identified the male who was shot on Minefee Street on Saturday and the female who was found dead in a residence on Minefee Street on Sunday.

Anthony Robinson, 35, of Richmond, was found down and unresponsive on a sidewalk in the 1300 block of Minefee Street at approximately 9:02 p.m. Saturday following calls for random gunfire and a report of a person down.

Robinson was pronounced dead at the scene.

The following day, detectives found Sharonda Jasper, 39, of Amelia County, down and unresponsive in an apartment in the 1300 block of Minefee Street. She had not suffered from a visible injury but was pronounced dead at the scene.
