Rhys, who played for The Fir Tree Boys football club, was on his way home from football practice
with two friends. As he was crossing the Fir Tree pub car park, on Fir Tree Drive South in the
Croxteth Park estate, Liverpool, a hooded youth riding a silver mountain bike approached. He then
held out a handgun at arm's length firing three shots. It was originally believed that one of the
shots hit Rhys in the neck.

However, during the trial the pathologist revealed the bullet had entered his back "slightly above
the left shoulder blade" and that it had then "exited from the front right side of his neck". The
shooting occurred in daylight at 7.30 pm BST.
