VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. - The night of March 26, Janet Hollinger was at her home near 17th Street and Pacific Avenue when she heard the familiar sounds: arguing followed by gunshots and then sirens.
Ten people were shot in the area that night, including DeShayla Harris, 29, who was struck and killed by a stray bullet and Donovon Lynch, 25, who was killed in an officer-involved shooting. Come to the ocean. It s safe, insists Hollinger, when News 3 visited her business, The Beauty Tree Spa, near Pacific Avenue and 32nd Street weeks later.
