The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors extended a $10,000 reward to anyone with information leading to an arrest in the 2021 shooting death of a man outside a Monrovia home.
Terry Alford, 46, was visiting family on the afternoon of Friday, Jan. 29, 2021 on the 100 block of East Los Angeles Avenue when he was approached by four men while on the front porch, law enforcement officials said.
Alford was shot multiple times by at least two of the suspects and after attempts to render aid by responding officers, he was pronounced dead by Monrovia Fire Department fire paramedics at the scene.
“Terry’s life was violently and senselessly ended, leaving his wife, children, and loved ones grieving for the rest of their lives,” Supervisor Kathryn Barger said, who moved the motion to extend the reward for the fifth time since it was offered in 2022. “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.”
Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department investigators, which is assisting Monrovia authorities with the homicide investigation, believe the shooting was gang related and intentional, but that Alford was not the intended target.
Anyone with information can anonymously contact the Los Angeles Regional Crime Stoppers Hotline at (800) 222-TIPS (8477) or submit a tip online at lacrimestoppers.org.
