LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (May 6, 2017) – The City of Little Rock is offering a $50,000 reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the individual(s) responsible for the November shooting death of 2-year-old Ramiya Reed.

City Manager Bruce T. Moore said finding the person(s) who committed the crime was a top priority for the Little Rock Police Department.

“Police have been investigating but with little cooperation from potential witnesses who could help bring justice for this grieving family,” Moore said. “It’s my hope that this increased reward amount will motivate someone to do the right thing and speak up for Ramiya.”

Previously, the city and a private donor offered a $20,000 reward in the case that Moore increased to $40,000 in December.
