Jakarta (ANTARA) - Sepupu penyanyi Nicole Scherzinger tewas dalam sebuah kecelakaan tabrak lari di Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Amerika Serikat, pekan lalu.

Dalam sebuah unggahan di Instagram, Scherzinger meminta tolong kepada para pengikutnya untuk memberinya informasi siapa pelaku tabrak lari.

"Keluargaku dan aku memohon informasi apapun yang bisa membantu investigasi atas kematian pria luar biasa ini," kata Scherzinger, Page Six, Jumat (1/11).

It’s like a nightmare, that we will never be able to wake from...It is with the heaviest of hearts that I say goodbye to my beautiful cousin, John Boy. This past Saturday October the 26th at 3am, his life was taken by a hit and run in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Though I must take comfort in knowing that he is at peace with our Lord, I also know the agony our family is going through, knowing someone hit him head on and just left him there to die. My sweet cousin, I love you so much. This world was a better place with you and your kind, creative heart in it. We will never forget you and will carry you with us forever. My family and I are pleading for any information which could help support the investigation into the tragic death of this incredible man. I ask that whoever did this, has the dignity and strength to come forward. Our God is a loving and forgiving God, but I pray for justice for John Boy and closure for my family. #JusticeForJohnBoy
