Good morning, Virginia Beach.

A Virginia Beach nonprofit lost vital supplies and insurance coverage when a fire destroyed its storage building on May 22—local groups are helping as founder Lynn Nelson plans a fundraiser on June 21 to rebuild resources.

A tree fell on Elbow Rd. near the Chesapeake and closed the road in both directions — officials have not given an ETA for reopening.

Preliminary data from Virginia State Police shows that seven people died in Memorial Day weekend crashes in counties including Virginia Beach+ a hit-and-run fatality in Bedford County is still under investigation as troopers issued over 3,300 speeding citations and over 1,500 reckless driving citations.

Two women were arrested Tuesday for making a straw purchase of a firearm later used in a May 14 shooting; 50-year-old Christine Howell is charged with lying on a firearms consent form and 47-year-old Rahsheda Scott with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

A new report from the Virginia Institute of Marine Science and Maryland Department of Natural Resources shows Chesapeake Bay’s blue crab population is estimated at 238 million for 2025—the second-lowest count in recent years.
