Representative Jen Kiggans, whose district includes Virginia Beach, said her office’s “thoughts and prayers” are with the officers’ families and their community.
Two Virginia police officers were fatally shot during a traffic stop on Friday evening, according to an announcement from their police department.
Virginia Beach officers Cameron Girvin and Christopher Reece were “shot in the line of duty” during a late-night traffic stop, Chief Paul Neudigate told reporters Saturday afternoon.
McCoy then got out of the car and fatally shot each of the officers twice with a pistol, Neudigate said.
"Heartbreaking news out of Virginia Beach where local media reports one officer was killed and another seriously injured last night," the office wrote on X.
