reisse

To put it bluntly Reisse was hit by an automobile by a criminal.

If the police had struck Reisse that would be different, but they didn't.

I used to drive through the intersection Andrew Scott Reisse was hit almost every day (until major road construction re-routed me).

Can someone share how Reisse was involved w/ the Oculus Rift?

I truly wish the best for the community, for the Reisse and Oculus VR family.

It's very sad that every sane and informed comment (like reisse's) has to meet this kind of snarky comment whose only purpose is being snarky on HN.

Andrew Reisse is rolling in his grave right now.

- Oculus Rift co-founder Andrew Reisse killed in August in the crosswalk during a police chase.

Especially since internet discussions about police often turn into emotionally charged and hateful arguments, I think keeping the discussion focused on Reisse is a very good and respectful request.

Looking at the company's profile[1], it makes no mention of Reisse, and lists Luckey as the "Founder".

At worst Reisse is "guilty" of nothing other than inattention, which certainly nobody deserves death for.

Even searching their site[2] makes no mention of Reisse, other than a recent discussion[3] about his untimely death.

Reisse was killed in a car accident caused by gang members who were fleeing from the police.

Reisse sounds like not just an immensely talented hacker, but someone with the selfless attitude that our world needs more of.
