The Levy County Sheriff’s Office is asking that anyone with information regarding an unsolved murder come forward as the sixth-year anniversary of the investigation approaches.

Leo Rives, 31, a Williston resident was found dead next to his vehicle at 3571 NE 218th Avenue with multiple gunshot wounds on July 5, 2014. No arrests have been made in Leo’s murder.
