   RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Seven people were shot, two fatally, when gunfire   
   rang out Tuesday outside a downtown theater in Richmond, Virginia, where a   
   high school graduation ceremony had just ended, causing hundreds of   
   attendees to flee in panic, weep and clutch their children, authorities   
   and witnesses said.   
      
   A 19-year-old suspect tried to escape on foot but was arrested and will be   
   charged with two counts of second-degree murder, Interim Richmond Police   
   Chief Rick Edwards said during a nighttime news conference at which he   
   confirmed the two fatalities.   
      
   Five others were wounded by the gunfire outside the state capital’s city-   
   owned Altria Theater, which is across the street from a large, grassy park   
   and in the middle of the Virginia Commonwealth University campus. At least   
   12 others were injured or treated for anxiety due to the mayhem, according   
   to police.   
      
   “As they heard the gunfire, it was obviously chaos,” Edwards said. “We had   
   hundreds of people in Monroe Park, so people scattered. It was very   
   chaotic at the scene.

   Edwards said one of the people who was killed was an 18-year-old male   
   student who had just graduated, while the other was a 36-year-old man who   
   was there for the graduation. Their names were not released, but police   
   believe the suspect, who was not immediately identified, knew at least one   
   of the victims.   
      
   “This should have been a safe space. People should have felt safe at a   
   graduation,” Edwards said.   
      
   “It’s just incredibly tragic that someone decided to bring a gun to this   
   incident and rain terror on our community.”   
      
   Six people were brought to VCU Medical Center and their conditions ranged   
   from serious to critical late Tuesday, VCU Health System spokesperson Mary   
   Kate Brogan said.   
      
   Multiple handguns were recovered. Police initially said two suspects were   
   detained, but Edwards said later that they determined one of them was not   
   involved.   
      
   Richmond Mayor Levar Stoney vowed to ensure anyone responsible faces   
   justice.   
      
   “This should not be happening anywhere,” Stoney said.
