In an effort to solve a case nearly six years old, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors Tuesday extended and doubled a reward for information leading to the person who fatally shot a 4-year-old boy in Altadena.

The county Board of Supervisors originally offered a $20,000 reward for information in the case. That reward was increased to $25,000 in 2021. With the reward set to expire later in May, the board on Tuesday approved a motion by Supervisor Kathryn Barger to extend the reward offer, and increase it to $50,000.

"This really has to end," said Jenny Esparza, the boy's grandmother."There's not code of silence when it comes to killing a child. You shouldn't be afraid to speak up." Investigators said the gunman walked up to the home, located east of the 210 Freeway, and fired at least 13 rounds, striking the 4-year-old boy and a 27-year-old man nearby, who was a family friend not related to the child.
