13News Now spoke to Tyler Heywood's family, who said they have lost a friend, brother and son in this tragedy.
According to loved ones, Heywood attempted to break up a fight during a New Year's Eve party on Guinea Road, which ultimately cost him his life.
"That's the kind of person he was, always a peacekeeper," said Michael Brooks, a friend of Heywood. "People were arguing, he tried to de-escalate the situation. It should never have happened to him."
His family remembered Heywood as a kind and loving person. They are asking anyone who was at the party to come forward with information.
"Hand it over to police, give them what they need," said Jermaine Thompkins, Heywood's father. "I miss him, we loved him."
The sheriff's office said it has obtained footage that shows several recording events from the night of the shooting on their phones. Investigators want the community's help to provide any additional videos that were taken before or after the shooting.
"Parents of juveniles who attended the party the night of this incident should consider talking to their children and impressing upon them the importance of sharing this information, as it may help to shed additional light on the incident," the sheriff's office wrote in a Facebook post.
The sheriff's office continued by saying videos can be shared anonymously, for those reluctant to be identified as potential witnesses.
Anyone who can help investigators is asked to call 804-210-1909 or the Crime Line at 1-888-LOCK-U-UP.
