Another suspect in the May 2019 homicide of Belle Haven resident Alvin Lee “Derek” Rogers was set to be arraigned Thursday in Accomack Circuit Court.

ESVA Chamber Fest, Saturday, May 18 in Cape Charles

18-year-old Nyxavier Riekem Snead, of Mill Run Lane, who was indicted on counts of premeditated murder, robbery, and use of a firearm in those offenses, was not present for the hearing.

Instead, Judge W. Revell Lewis III was informed that a hearing had been set for Oct. 29.

Snead was 17-years-old when forty-year-old Rogers, also of Mill Run Lane, was found shot to death in his car on Boggs Road, in Painter. Rogers died from a gunshot wound to the torso, according to the Medical Examiner’s Office. Snead will be tried as an adult.

Twenty-four-year-old Bronta Jamar Ames, of Killmontown Road, in Melfa, was arraigned earlier this month on the same charges. He has requested a jury trial, which likely won’t be conducted until next year due to the pandemic ban.
