  1. Man shoots his father at Easter Sunday church service while screaming that it ‘is the will of Allah’

    Records show that in 2007, Reshad Riddle was charged with felonious assault, and in 2009 he was charged with possession of drugs, tampering with evidence and possession of cocaine.

    According to police reports, one of the felonious assault charges stemmed from an incident when Reshad Riddle allegedly attempted to cut his girlfriend’s throat. Captain Joseph Cellitti said the young woman’s neck had been cut with a knife and she suffered bruising on her side and chest.
