STONY POINT, NY — Ryan O’Shea, a 21-year-old college hockey captain from Stony Point in Rockland County, was killed in a wrong-way crash on Interstate 91 in Connecticut on October 16, 2026.

O’Shea was a senior at the University of New Haven, where he studied criminal justice and served as captain of the men’s club hockey team.

The Rockland County native had aspirations of pursuing a career in law enforcement after graduation. He hoped to become an officer with the New York City Police Department (NYPD), with the ultimate goal of joining the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).

Those dreams were cut short when O’Shea was killed in the October 16 crash.

According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the crash involved Guillermo Carmona-Lopez, a driver whom federal officials say had previously been deported from the United States.

DHS stated that Carmona-Lopez had illegally entered the United States multiple times and was issued a final removal order in May 2013.

The circumstances surrounding O’Shea’s death have brought attention to the driver’s reported immigration history and raised questions about immigration enforcement and public safety.

O’Shea’s death represents a devastating loss for his family, friends, teammates, and the Rockland County community.

A college senior, hockey team captain, and aspiring law enforcement officer, O’Shea had been preparing for a future dedicated to serving and protecting others.

His life was tragically cut short at just 21 years old.
