David Camacho was a 32-year-old father of four and a chef at Rhode Island Hospital who was killed in Providence in the early hours of Saturday, March 20, 2021. He and a friend, 32-year-old Kenneth Hernandez, left a nightclub together and were driving to an after-hours party in Olneyville when the two who had been following them looped the block on Julian Street looking for parking. Less than a minute after they returned, Camacho was found lying in the street with multiple gunshot wounds; Hernandez was not at the scene. Camacho was taken to Rhode Island Hospital in a private vehicle and did not survive.

Providence police identified Hernandez as a person of interest; he came in for questioning and was arrested and charged with first-degree murder, using a firearm during a crime of violence, and carrying a pistol without a license, then held without bail. In September 2021 prosecutors dropped the murder charge after convenience-store surveillance video reportedly showed Hernandez was not at the scene. Hernandez said he had also been attacked and beaten that night. With the only suspect exonerated, the murder remains unsolved.

If anyone knew David, his movements that night, or has information about what happened on Julian Street, please share what you know.
