TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Big Bend Crime Stoppers has announced the reward for information leading to an arrest in the death of a Florida State law professor has been increased to $25,000.
Tallahassee police say Florida State University professor Dan Markel was the intended target when he was shot in the head in his garage on July 18. The shooting of the popular lawyer has stunned friends, colleagues and residents of his well-to-do community in Florida's state capital.
Police spokesman David Northway says there are no updates in the case and no arrests have been made.
This is the third time the reward, which started at $1,000, has been increased. Tips can be called in to (850) 574-8477.
