Homicide Bureau Detectives and family members will ask for the public’s assistance with any information that will lead to those responsible for the murder of Reginald Thompson Sr. A $20,000 reward will also be announced.

On Tuesday, January 11, 2022, Reginald Thompson, Sr. was in the parking lot of a shopping center, located in the 11400 block of South Vermont Ave., talking to friends when four suspects parked their vehicle on Vermont Avenue just south of the shopping center. The suspects exited their vehicle, approached and fired several times at Thompson and his friends. Thompson was struck by gunfire and later succumbed to his injuries at a local hospital.

Homicide Detectives believe there are witnesses that can provide valuable information to the case and will plead to the public to come forward with any information.
