NORFOLK — The video clip began with Danielle Moore stepping onto the stairwell outside her second-floor apartment. “Are you okay?” she asks as she looks toward the grassy area below. Next, three gunshots ring out, and Moore hurries back into her apartment, where she can be heard crying out, “Oh my God,” over and over again. By the time Moore went back outside, three of her neighbors were dead .
One year ago, a mass shooting shook the Young Terrace community to its core. Five women were shot, three of them died. Some neighbors say the neighborhood is still not safe.
Ziontay Palmer is charged with killing three women and injuring two others in a shooting last November at Young Terrace housing complex in Norfolk. At a Wednesday preliminary hearing, a judge certified multiple murder, malicious wounding and firearms charges against Palmer and the case will now be sent to a grand jury for consideration.
