Konyae Nafis Rice, 18, was shot to death the night of March 5, 2022, in Philadelphia’s West Oak Lane neighborhood. He was found just before midnight with multiple gunshot wounds in the rear driveway of an apartment building on Cedar Park Avenue. Two friends in a nearby stolen Kia Sportage also died: 18-year-old Lamir Naseem Timms (listed as Lamir 'Naseem' Timms in reports) with a gunshot to the head, and 20-year-old Ahmed Graham, found in the back seat with a gunshot wound to his back.

Known as Fatyae, Konyae had turned 18 on February 14, 2004, and was a student at John Bartram High School preparing to graduate. Family described him as loud, laughing easily, entrepreneurial from a young age, and someone who enjoyed football and video games. No arrests have been announced and the motive remains unclear. Konyae’s mother, Magdalena Rice, has suggested the vehicle’s driver may have been the target and noted a wallet found inside the car that did not belong to the three victims.

The City of Philadelphia is offering up to a $20,000 reward for information that leads to arrest and conviction. If anyone knew Konyae or has information about that night, please share what is known with investigators.
