The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors yesterday unanimously approved a motion introduced by Supervisor Kathryn Barger that extends a $10,000 reward in exchange for information leading to the arrest of those responsible for the murder of 46 year-old Terry Alford.
On Jan. 29, 2021, Mr. Alford was shot multiple times in front of a residence in Monrovia while visiting his family.
“Terry’s life was violently and senselessly ended, leaving his wife, children, and loved ones grieving for the rest of their lives,” said Supervisor Kathryn Barger. “His murder took place over three years ago but law enforcement agencies remain dedicated to finding those responsible for Terry’s murder. I’m hopeful this $10,000 reward encourages someone to step forward. Terry’s family and the community at large deserve justice and closure.”
According to law enforcement officials involved in the investigation, Mr. Alford was on a front porch when four male suspects approached the residence. At least two of the suspects shot him multiple times. Law enforcement investigators believe the shooting was gang related and intentional, but presume Mr. Alford was not the intended target.
