On the night of May 1, 2026, Juan David Rivera, 33, was shot and killed near the intersection of West Liberty Street and Wellington Square Drive in York, South Carolina. Police responded to multiple 911 calls reporting gunfire just before 11:45 p.m.; witnesses said they heard a rapid succession of more than a dozen shots. Officers found two men with gunshot wounds. Rivera was pronounced dead at the scene; the other victim, not publicly identified, was taken to a hospital with a leg wound.

York Police identified and arrested 34-year-old Kejuan Deangelo Dye of Clover the next day and charged him with murder, attempted murder, possession of a weapon during a violent crime, and possession of a weapon by a convicted felon. Dye was described as a convicted felon released from South Carolina Department of Corrections in May 2025 and is being held at the Moss Detention Center without bail. Investigators have not released a motive and the investigation is ongoing.

Friends and family remembered Rivera as a loving, funny man; funeral services and burial at Lakeview Memory Garden in York were scheduled for the following week. Did anyone in York see or hear anything that night or know Rivera and can share information with investigators?
