MAN JAILED IN OFFICER'S SLAYING

The Chesapeake policeman was serving a warrant when he was shot to death.

A Chesapeake police officer shot and killed Thursday night is 
survived by his wife and three children between 2 and 14.

Jarrod Shivers, 34, an eight-year veteran of the Chesapeake Police 
Department, died after being shot at a house on Redstart Avenue about 
8:40 p.m., Chesapeake police said.

Ryan David Frederick, 28, was charged with first-degree murder and 
use of a firearm in commission of a felony. He was being held in the 
Chesapeake City Jail.

Police spokeswoman Christi Golden said Shivers was serving a 
narcotics warrant at the house when Frederick opened the door and 
fired at him. Shivers was struck by at least one bullet. He was taken 
to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

After the shooting, detectives remained at the house until a SWAT 
team arrived. Frederick was arrested at the scene. No other suspects 
were found.

Golden said an account has been opened at the Bank of Hampton Roads 
in Shivers' name. Donations for his family can be made under his name 
or under an account named "Officer Down."
