Late Sunday evening, a neighborhood in Prince George County was shattered by violence. Around 10:44 p.m. on October 12, 2025, police got a call of shots fired in the 4000 block of Brandywine Drive. When officers arrived, they found 19-year-old Dan’Quariahz Redd of Hopewell, Virginia, suffering from a gunshot wound. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Since then, investigators have been piecing together what led to such a sudden, fatal moment. So far, no suspects have been publicly identified and no motive has been confirmed. Authorities say they’re working through witness accounts, surveillance video, and physical evidence to understand exactly what unfolded.



Law enforcement is urging anyone with information—no matter how small—to come forward. Tips may be shared via the Prince George County Police Department at (804) 733-2773, Crime Solvers at (804) 733-2777, or anonymously through the P3tips app. Investigators stress that community help could be crucial in moving the case forward.
Residents in the area say they heard loud bursts—sharp, jarring sounds that shattered the calm of the evening. Some say they glimpsed figures running or a vehicle speeding off, but details remain murky and unverified. In interviews over the past day, neighbors expressed shock and fear that such violence struck so close to home.
Investigators have not confirmed whether Redd was the target or if this homicide stemmed from a broader conflict. They’re also examining whether any persons of interest have fled the area, and are carefully reviewing any CCTV or doorbell camera footage in nearby homes. In addition, forensic teams are cataloging shell casings and other scene evidence.
This tragedy marks another in a troubling pattern—a young life cut short, leaving behind unanswered questions. For family, friends, and neighbors, the pain is deepened by uncertainty. The local police emphasize that investigations like this often rely on a single witness stepping forward, or a video clip that reveals more than memory ever could.
As the investigation continues, updates will be provided. In the meantime, authorities urge vigilance, community cooperation, and above all, hope that truth will surface—so that Dan’Quariahz Redd’s death might not fade into silence.
