An $85,000 reward is being offered for information that leads to an arrest in the unsolved Stockton shootings that started in July. Five recent murders in Stockton, California, over the last three months are believed to be connected, authorities said Friday while announcing an $85,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest. All five male victims, between the ages of 21 and 54, were fatally shot while walking alone in the evening or early morning hours. Four of the five victims were Hispanic, though Stockton Police Chief Stanley McFadden said there’s no indication that it’s a hate crime. The shootings, which McFadden said appear to involve an “element of surprise,” started on July 8 with the death of a 35-year-old man. The most recent killing was Tuesday and took the life of the oldest victim, 54.
