Man charged in burglaries of pro athletes' homes including Richard Sherman and Julio Rodriguez
Earl Henderson Riley IV was charged with breaking into the homes of Mariners center fielder Julio Rodriguez and pitcher Luis Castillo, as well as former Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman and Los Angeles Dodgers Pitcher Blake Snell.
On March 31, Richard Sherman posted on X that several armed men broke into his home the day before while his wife and kids were inside.
According to court documents, Mariners CF Julio Rodriguez's home was burglarized on May 1 on Mercer Island. His girlfriend was home at the time and she barricaded herself in a bathroom while she called 911.
Over $194,000 in jewelry and high-end purses were stolen, documents say.
Mariners Pitcher Luis Castillo's home was burglarized twice - once on February 7, and again on March 28, prosecutors say.
Surveillance video at Castillo's home captured the suspects fleeing in a black Jeep Grand Cherokee, which helped lead authorities to Earl Henderson Riley IV's arrest.
In Edmonds, the home of Los Angeles Dodger pitcher Blake Snell was burglarized on March 24. Court documents say the damage was discovered on March 26 by security associates at the home.
Over $200,000 in items were stolen, according to the documents.
Prosecutors also say burglars attempted to enter the home of former Mariner Edgar Martinez on March 29. Suspects were seen walking on the property but did not enter the residence and nothing was stolen, according to documents.
Court documents reveal that Earl Henderson Riley IV was previously released from court custody on February 7, 2025, after pleading guilty to previous robbery counts.
Riley is being held in the King County Jail on $1 million bail, the prosecutor's office says.

A woman gunned down by her homeless estranged husband in Queens last month was trying to shield her daughter from the barrage of bullets when she was killed, prosecutors said Thursday. Audwin Caines, 62, allegedly approached 45-year-old Chaneil Ramsay as she walked with her 21-year-old daughter in South Jamaica around 2:30 p.m. June 23 and started opening fire, according to the Queens DA's Office. The targeted mother and daughter ducked behind a car parked in the driveway of a home on 127th Avenue near 176th Street, court documents reveal. 5 Audwin Caines, 62, is allegedly shot and killed his estranged wife as she tried to shield her daughter, prosecutors said.

Rescuers search for survivors after Houthi attack on cargo ship in the Red Sea
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — Rescuers launched a search Wednesday for survivors of a Liberian-flagged cargo ship that came under attack from Yemen's Houthi rebels in the Red Sea, authorities said. At least three mariners were killed and two were wounded. The attack on the Greek-owned Eternity C follows the Iranian-backed Houthis attacking another vessel, the bulk carrier Magic Seas , on Sunday in the Red Sea, which they subsequently sank. The assaults are the first Houthi attacks on shipping since late 2024 in the waterway that had begun to see more ships pass through in recent weeks.
