Najee Rivera was 23 when he was shot on December 5, 2015, near the intersection of C and Somerset streets in Kensington, Philadelphia. Rivera was struck in the side while trying to break up a fight between two women and was taken to Temple University Hospital; he died of his injuries 15 days later. The shooting reportedly involved a man who knew the women involved in the altercation.

The Philadelphia Police Department opened an investigation but encountered limited cooperation from witnesses. Rivera’s girlfriend, Dina Scannapieco, hired a private investigator to help identify the shooter. On April 25, 2016, police arrested 23-year-old Khalil Henderson and charged him with murder and related offenses; witnesses confirmed Rivera was shot while intervening. Rivera’s death also meant he could not testify in a separate 2013 case involving former officers Kevin Robinson and Sean McKnight.
