  • Summary

  • Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for Thursday, February 20, 2025. We're starting off with some breaking news from the Virginia Beach Police Department. Following a comprehensive investigation, officers identified Michael Shippy, a 41-year-old Virginia Beach resident, as the suspect in a fatal crash involving a pedestrian on Bonney Road. Shippy was taken into custody without incident on February 7 and charged with two counts of Felony Hit and Run, Possession of a Schedule I/II Substance, and Driving Under the Influence[1].

    Moving on to weather, it's a chilly morning in Virginia Beach. Today's forecast shows overcast clouds with temperatures ranging from 41 degrees to 48 degrees. This winter weather has had a significant impact on activities and events in the area. Just yesterday, Central Virginia experienced snowfall from a winter storm, causing multiple crashes and flight cancellations. While Virginia Beach didn't see much snow, it's always a good idea to check road conditions before heading out[2][5].

    In sports news, the VHSL Class 6 Region A Indoor Track and Field Championship took place at the Virginia Beach Sports Center from February 15 to 17. Local athletes competed in various events, showcasing their talents and dedication. It was an exciting event for our community, and we're proud of all the participants[3].

    On the job market front, Virginia Beach Parks & Recreation is hosting a job fair on February 27. This is a great opportunity for those looking to join the team and contribute to our city's recreational activities. We encourage everyone interested to attend and learn more about the available positions[1].

    In community events, we're looking forward to the upcoming activities in our city. While there aren't any major events scheduled for today, we recommend checking out local listings for any last-minute additions.

    In local school achievements, we want to highlight the recent VHSL Class 6 Region A Indoor Track and Field Championship. Our local athletes performed exceptionally well, and we're proud of their hard work and dedication.

    For today's crime report, we want to remind everyone about the recent arrest of Michael Shippy in connection with the fatal crash on Bonney Road. The Virginia Beach Police Department continues to investigate this incident and encourages anyone with information to contact them at 757-385-4606[1].

    Finally, we want to share a feel-good community story. Despite the cold weather, our community came together to support local athletes at the VHSL Class 6 Region A Indoor Track and Field Championship. It's moments like these that remind us of the strength and unity of our community.
