The shooting occurred outside the Altria Theater on the campus of Virginia Commonwealth University<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Two people were shot dead and five others wounded after a gunman opened fire in a park in Richmond, Virginia, on Tuesday as high school graduates and their families emerged from a theater where commencement exercises had just concluded, police said.<\/p>\n

Police arrested a suspect, an 19-year-old man, and planned to charge him with two counts of second-degree murder in addition to other possible offenses, interim Richmond Police Chief Rick Edwards and other officials told reporters.<\/p>\n

The shooting occurred outside the Altria Theater on the campus of Virginia Commonwealth University, where local high school graduation ceremonies were being held.<\/p>\n

Those dead were men aged 18 and 36, Edwards said. He did not confirm a WWBT television news report that the victims were father and son.<\/p>\n

Among the shooting victims, a 31-year-old man suffered life-threatening injuries and four other males aged 14, 32, 55 and 58 were expected to survive, Edwards said.<\/p>\n

In addition, a 9-year-old girl was struck by a car in the chaos that ensued, and multiple other people were injured in falls or suffered from anxiety, Edwards said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
