10-Year Hunt for Boy's Killer: $85K Reward Offered

Ten years ago, on July 5, 2016, a stray bullet tragically ended the life of 4-year-old Salvador Esparza in Altadena. Investigators believe the boy was fatally struck while standing in his home's doorway during an incident where someone was being chased through the yard. Despite extensive efforts over the past decade, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department has yet to make an arrest in this case.

Sheriff Robert Luna is now making a renewed public appeal, stating that he believes witnesses hold the key to solving the crime. To encourage tips, county officials have announced an $85,000 reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for Salvador's death. Officials emphasize that even seemingly minor details could provide the crucial breakthrough needed to identify the perpetrator and provide long-sought justice for the Esparza family.
