Shawn Riley Senselessly Murdered
Following closely on the heels of a tragic incident involving the death of a young aspiring cricketer; Agha Faran Khan, senselessly murdered in a park in Allen, Texas, last summer, the USA cricketing community was rocked with another senseless murder this past weekend.
Twenty-five year old Florida cricketer Shawn Riley was brutally gunned down last Sunday, March 7 in Florida. The Jamaican-born cricketer, who was recently called to trials to represent the USA’s senior men’s team, leaves to mourn a two-year old son, his father Dave Riley of Miami and his mother Ena Rosedaye of New York, along with several relatives and friends in the New York and Florida areas, as well as Jamaica, West Indies.
An ongoing investigation surrounding the murder of Shawn Riley is now underway by the Miami, Florida police, as the entire cricketing community of the USA and Shawn’s fellow cricketers in the State of Florida mourns the tragic loss.
Like Agha Faran Khan, USACA seeks justice for Shawn Riley, and may both of their souls forever rest in peace.
