Long Beach, CA ~ The Long Beach City Council unanimously approved a motion on May 23, 2023, to enter discussions with the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors to establish a reward of no less than $25,000 for information leading to the arrest of the suspect(s) involved in the fatal shooting of 12-year-old Eric Gregory Brown III and injuries to a 14-year-old girl.
Mayor Rex Richardson expressed his condolences to the family of Eric Gregory Brown III and stated that they are determined to find those responsible for this devastating loss and hold them accountable. The total reward amount is yet to be determined, but if the County moves forward with a recommendation to contribute, it will be heard at a future Board of Supervisors meeting.
The recommendation was brought forward by Sixth District Councilwoman Dr. Suely Saro and co-sponsored by Mayor Rex Richardson, Fifth District Councilwoman Megan Kerr and Eighth District Councilmember Al Austin. The City has in the past matched County rewards using private donations in limited occurrences under certain circumstances.
