On the morning of November 24, 2015, 24-year-old David Rivera was shot multiple times in front of a daycare near 175th Street and Crotona Avenue in the Bronx. He was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital, where he died from his wounds. The killing has been described as the culmination of a violent rivalry between two drug gangs fighting over drug-selling territory in the neighborhood, with reports that the conflict had included prior exchanges of gunfire and may have involved personal jealousy.

Investigators focused on 23-year-old Ruben Pizzaro as the primary suspect; authorities say he fled and was the subject of an intensive manhunt that involved the FBI and the NYPD. If anyone knew Rivera, witnessed the shooting, or has information about the gang rivalry and territory disputes in that area, please share what is known with investigators.
