A lifelong Liverpool FC fan was shot dead while visiting his family in the USA.
Benjamin Tucker died in the early hours of Sunday, April 24, after being shot at a convenience store in the city of Savannah, in the US state of Georgia. The 27-year-old, originally from Hampshire and living in London, had flown over to the US to visit his family for one month when the tragedy occurred.
Friend Josh Bothe, 27, now wants to celebrate Ben's life with a round of applause during the 28th minute of the Liverpool v Villarreal match tonight at Anfield. Paying tribute to Ben, his family described him as a "smart, loyal and funny man."
