A new update has come in a case that has left many shocked for nearly a decade. A young college baseball pitcher, Calvin Riley was killed while playing a mobile game at a busy tourist spot.
The case had gone quiet for years. Now the FBI has released a new clue that could possibly solve what happened that night. The victim's family is still mourning their loss; this case came to light back in 2016 in San Francisco, now in 2025 we are once again looking into this case.
Calvin Riley was shot and killed while playing Pokemon Go in San Francisco in 2016
Shot and killed on the night of August 6, 2016, Calvin Riley was just 20 years old. Calvin Riley was out playing Pokemon Go with a buddy near Aquatic Park and Ghirardelli Square in San Francisco that evening.
Someone came from behind at around 9:50 p. m. and shot Calvin Riley once in the chest. He died where he was; no words were spoken, no theft took place.
Calvin Riley had his phone and wallet on him, therefore it is unclear what the motive could have been. At the time, police shared a sketch of one suspect and asked the public for help in finding two cars – a dark-colored Audi A3 wagon (model year 2006–2009) and a white Hyundai Sonata (model year 2013).
But no arrests were made.
FBI shares sketch of second man after nine years of silence
In 2023, the FBI officially took over the case from U.S. Park Police, as Aquatic Park is on federal land. On June 25, 2025, the FBI released a new sketch of a second man they believe could be connected. He has glasses, a beard, and was seen recording video at the crime scene.
They believe he was with the first suspect, who may have been driving the car and was also seen with a blonde woman. According to the FBI, both the Audi and Hyundai were seen arriving together just before the shooting and then leaving right after.
Calvin Riley's father, Sean Riley, told NBC Bay Area that this tragedy has deeply hurt their family. 'It's been a nightmare going on nine years,' he said with tears. Calvin Riley was from Massachusetts and played baseball for San Joaquin Delta College.
