On the late evening of August 20, 2016, 45-year-old Henry Liriano-Aquino was found unresponsive on the ground near Hummel and Swatara Streets in Harrisburg after reports of gunfire. He had sustained a gunshot wound to the head and died while being transported to the hospital. An autopsy later showed he had been shot twice, once in the head and once in the left thigh; the fatal head wound was fired from a distance of at least three to four feet. The Dauphin County Coroner ruled the death a homicide.

Investigators identified a state parole violator, Edgardo Rivera, as a suspect. Rivera was arrested on August 26, 2016, without incident outside a residence on King George Drive; a search of the property turned up a .40 caliber handgun, uncut heroin valued at over $6,000, drug packaging materials, and more than $3,200 in cash. Rivera was charged with Criminal Homicide, Recklessly Endangering Another Person, multiple firearms offenses and drug-related counts. His wife, Denise Rivera, was also held on drug and firearm possession charges.

Anyone with information about Henry, the shooting on August 20, or the people involved is urged to come forward.
