Marco Antonio Velazquez was 24 when he was killed on the morning of Sunday, September 22, 2024, after a planned confrontation in Boiling Springs, South Carolina. Deputies were called around 10:30–10:45 a.m. to a shooting near 946 Thorn Ridge Drive; Marco was pronounced dead at the scene and the coroner later confirmed his identity and residence as Overhill Circle in Spartanburg. Three other people were caught up in the violence: two suffered gunshot wounds and were taken to a hospital, while a fourth person had been shot at but not hit and was brought to the sheriff’s office for questioning.

Investigators say everyone involved knew one another and had agreed to meet at the home for a fight that escalated into an ambush involving an assault rifle. Authorities identified 22-year-old A.B. Martinez as the alleged shooter; reports say he was arrested soon after and has been charged in connection with Marco’s death and the wounded victims.

Does anyone have information about Marco, where he spent time in Boiling Springs, or about the events that morning?
