The funeral of a postal worker shot and killed. Tyson Barnette moved to Maryland after graduating from Northwestern High School in his hometown of Rock Hill.

“He was a very sweet, respectable young man,” Barnette’s great aunt Mary Roseboro said. “He’s the type of guy that anyone could love.”

On Sunday, those who loved him gathered at Foundation AME Zion Church to celebrate Barnette’s life. His family members told Eyewitness News they’re leaning on each other right now to get through this difficult time.

Postal workers showed up in their uniforms at the funeral upset that one of their own lost his life because of senseless violence. Barnette’s killer is still on the loose. Postal officials are offering a $100,000 reward and police are offering an additional $25,000 to anyone who has information leading to an arrest.
