Trajon Rivera was 19 when he was shot and killed on New Year’s Eve 2017 in Norfolk, Virginia. He had recently graduated from Granby High School and hoped to become a cook and eventually open a food truck. The shooting took place in the early morning inside a garage in the 3700 block of Tait Terrace, where Rivera was with his brother and some friends. Responding officers and medics found him with a severe gunshot wound; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police arrested 21-year-old Keyshawn Johnson at the location and charged him with voluntary manslaughter; Johnson was held in the Norfolk City Jail without bond. Detectives did not release a motive or explain Johnson’s relationship to Rivera. An uncle of Rivera told investigators the firearm discharged accidentally, but the charge remained voluntary manslaughter and the exact circumstances before the shooting have not been publicly detailed.

If anyone knew Trajon, was at the garage that night, or has information about what happened, please share what you know.
