A late-June 2017 confrontation in Rock Hill, South Carolina began as a planned fight between two young women after a negative Facebook post and ended with gunfire that killed 17-year-old Quantavious ’Quan’ Torbit. Torbit, a rising senior and basketball player at South Pointe High School, was at a local park when shots were fired. He was taken to Piedmont Medical Center in a private vehicle and pronounced dead. A 20-year-old woman was also struck by a stray bullet and survived.

Police interviewed numerous people at the scene but reported reluctance from many to provide statements. Investigators arrested 25-year-old Demetric Leon Houze, identified as the shooter, and 19-year-old Timothy Holley, identified as Torbit’s brother, charged with discharging a firearm within the city limits. Torbit’s mother, who witnessed the shooting, said her sons had been trying to de-escalate the situation before it turned violent.

In November 2018 Houze pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and was sentenced to 16 years in prison. Does anyone who was at the park that night or who knew Quan have additional details to share?
