Man arrested for Oceanfront shooting faces new charges for January robbery, shooting

Devon Dorsey Jr. was charged in connection to a shooting on Jan. 23 that severely hurt someone. Police say a person was shot in the back during a robbery.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Police have connected one of the men who was arrested in connection to a shootout at the Oceanfront where eight people were hurt with a robbery and another shooting that happened back in January.

Devon Maurice Dorsey, 20, was charged with robbery, malicious wounding, and use of a firearm. Police charged him on Friday.

Dorsey already faces a number of weapons and assault charges for the shooting that happened on Atlantic Avenue on March 26.

His newest charges come more than two months after a shooting that left one person severely injured.

It happened in the 900 block of Atlantis Drive on Jan. 23. A male victim suffered life-threatening wounds after being shot in the back during a robbery.

Authorities had already arrested 23-year-old Montrell McIntyre early on for the crime. He faces the same charges as Dorsey.

No other details have been released at this time.
