Overview

  • Calvin Riley, a 20-year-old college pitcher, was shot dead on August 6, 2016, while playing Pokémon Go with a friend in San Francisco’s Aquatic Park.
  • On June 24, the FBI unveiled a new sketch of a bearded man with glasses seen recording the scene alongside a previously released image of a driver with a blonde female passenger.
  • Investigators identified a white 2015 Hyundai Sonata and a dark Audi A3 wagon arriving together before the shooting and departing immediately afterward.
  • Riley’s phone and wallet were left untouched at the scene, indicating robbery was not the motive for the killing.
  • The bureau is offering up to $25,000 for information leading to the identification and arrest of the two persons of interest.
