VIRGINIA BEACH — Two men face first-degree murder charges in the fatal shooting of a Virginia Beach police detective in a shopping center parking lot.
Virginia Beach police also charged 23-year-old Ted Vincent Carter and 26-year-old Marshall Demetrius Moyd today with use of a firearm in commission of a felony and conspiracy to violate the drug conspiracy act.
Police identified the officer as 37-year-old Det. Michael Smith Phillips.
Police spokesman Adam Bernstein says Phillips was working undercover when he was shot around 11:15 p.m. last night in the parking lot of the Green Run Shopping Center. The officer died at the scene.
Carter and Moyd, both of Virginia Beach, are being held without bond in the Virginia Beach Correctional Center.
