CHESAPEAKE, Va. — Police were looking for a person of interest after a deadly shooting early Sunday morning in Chesapeake.

Just after 3 a.m., police were called to the Coveside Lane, not far from Greenbrier Mall, where they found 30-year-old Jeremiah Joseph Casarez had been shot multiple times.

Casarez died at the scene, police said.

Police previously said they were looking for a man who they considered a person of interest in this case. However, investigators have been in contact with the man, and police are no longer looking for him.

Police say all parties in the investigation have been interviewed and the investigation will be turned over to the Commonwealth Attorney's office for review.
