HAMPTON, Va. (WAVY) - A local company is using digital billboards as a crime-fighting tool.
Adams Outdoor Advertising , which has offices across the U.S., including one in Norfolk, put up seven billboards across Hampton Roads for free to help out the community and police.
The billboards display the pictures of Tyrek Allen and Floyd Lee Taybron.
Allen and Taybron are both wanted in connection with a shooting on West Queen Street in Hampton on July 21.
Allen is also wanted for a February 21 triple shooting and for a homicide on July 22. Both of those crimes were in Newport News.
If you have any information that could help investigators track down Allen or Taybron, call Crime Line at 1-888-Lock-U-Up.
