Brandon Rivera was 19 when he was shot and killed in the Bronx on May 29, 2016. Shortly before 1:30 a.m. on Crotona Avenue near East 187th Street, ShotSpotter detected gunfire and officers responding to 2335 Crotona Ave found Rivera with gunshot wounds to his chest and shoulder. He was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Rivera lived on Clinton Avenue in the Bronx.

Police investigators recovered a gun at the scene and later identified suspects. A few days after the shooting, 28-year-old Efrain Camacho was arrested and charged with murder, manslaughter, and criminal possession of a weapon in connection with Rivera’s death. In December 2016 the NYPD said they wanted to question 20-year-old Tavon Gillis about the homicide. Police believed the shooting was connected to a gang dispute between the Bloods and Crips.

Did anyone in the Bronx neighborhood around Crotona Avenue in 2016 see or hear anything that could help clarify what happened that night?
