Teen Girl Killed After Suspect Returns Hours After Shooting Through Family’s Front Door

A South Carolina family is grieving after police say a man opened fire on a home, disappeared, and then allegedly returned hours later and killed a 19-year-old woman outside the same residence.

The terrifying case unfolded Saturday night in Rock Hill, where doorbell camera footage reportedly captured 34-year-old Sean Xavier Hubbard approaching a home on Mount Gallant Road with what appeared to be a large weapon hidden under a black sheet.

According to local reports, the footage showed Hubbard walking up to the home, pulling open the screen door, and firing a shot into the doorway.

The video then allegedly showed him moving closer to the door and cocking the shotgun while looking around the area.

Police said no one was believed to be inside the home when the first shots were fired.

But the horror was not over.

Authorities were still investigating the first shooting when Hubbard allegedly came back to the property around 11 p.m. and shot 19-year-old Camariya Tidwell.

When police arrived, Tidwell was found dead on the ground outside the home, according to reports.

Her heartbroken mother, Shifarnia McCullough, said she cannot understand how the suspect was allegedly able to return after the earlier attack.

“This man came back and killed my 19-year-old daughter,” McCullough told WSOC.

“She didn’t hate nobody. She loved everybody. She was innocent,” she said.

Rock Hill Police Lt. Michael Chavis said officers had gone to Hubbard’s home after the first shooting but could not find him. Investigators believe Tidwell was not the intended target.

“It was somebody else our suspect had an issue with, and he thought the best way to solve this was to engage in violence, which is horrendous,” Chavis said.

“It should not have happened.”

Family members told WCNC they had originally hired Hubbard through social media to work on a cousin’s car. But the situation reportedly turned tense after he was fired for allegedly making threats.

Hubbard, who is from Clover, was arrested Sunday morning.

He has been charged with murder, discharging firearms into a dwelling, and possession of a weapon during a violent crime, according to jail records.

He is being held without bond at the York County Detention Center.

For Tidwell’s family, the charges do little to ease the pain of losing a young woman they say was loving, innocent, and caught in the middle of a violent dispute that had nothing to do with her.
