A dispute between two groups near West Main Street and Jackson Boulevard in Rapid City, South Dakota, ended in gunfire on December 13, 2025, leaving 19-year-old Korben Barber mortally wounded. First responders found Barber with severe injuries; he was taken to a local hospital and later died of his wounds.

The Rapid City Police Department opened an investigation and arrested a juvenile in connection with the shooting. Authorities say the shooting grew out of the earlier confrontation between the groups; the name of the arrested juvenile has not been released because of their age and specific charges have not been detailed.

An obituary for Korben T. Barber lists surviving parents, siblings, and grandparents. Friends and family held a visitation on December 23, 2025, with a memorial service planned for January. The investigation remains active.
