Three adults — two men and a woman — were held for questioning. Police said two of them, a man and a woman, came home that night and found Jones in a bed upstairs. A third man was already inside the home when they arrived and said he had not noticed anything unusual before Jones was found.
An argument broke out between the three men, and Jones was shot, police said. Jones did not appear to know any of the three adults involved, according to investigators.
After reviewing the evidence and talking with the Henrico County Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office — the office that decides whether to bring criminal charges — police said no charges will be filed at this time.
