Trial date set for man accused in crash that injured Janae Edmondson

ST. LOUIS, Mo. (KMOV) - A trial date has been set for Daniel Riley.

Riley is facing several charges, including three counts of assault and driving without a license. His attorney appeared in court in April and entered a not guilty plea on Riley’s behalf. His trial date has officially been set for March 4, 2024.

Prosecutors say that in February, Riley was driving recklessly, which led to him striking another car as well as 17-year-old Janae Edmondson, who was on the sidewalk.

This incident resulted in the teen having her legs severed.
