NORFOLK, Va. - Prosecutors say two men were justified in the shooting deaths of two people during a motel shooting in Norfolk.

The Commonwealth Attorney's office told WAVY.com the suspects were acting in self-defense when they shot and killed 20-year-old Trevor Pauley and 22-year-old Dante Cooley at the Econo Lodge on Military Highway on June 11.

Prosecutors say the suspects shot the victims who were attempting to rob them at gunpoint.
