Officials Offer $20K Reward For Suspect Wanted In Norwalk Double Murder

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Homicide detectives sought the public's help Wednesday to identify those who are responsible for the murder of a father and son in Norwalk.

At 10 a.m., the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and the City of Norwalk offered a combined $20,000 reward for information about this case.

On July 14, Walter Vicente, 49, and his 24-year-old son, Andrew, were discovered brutally murdered in their home, located in the 12300 block of Gettysburg Drive, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.
