TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — The family of a Topeka homicide victim have put up two billboards in hopes of getting information leading to an arrest in the case.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports Juan Solis was shot and killed in 2013 during what police said was a home invasion.

The victim’s mother, Dina Garcia, wants the billboards to remind people that her son’s killer remains at large.

She says she also hopes that a $20,000 reward will help convince anyone with information to come forward. Family and friends have been raising money for the reward, which has increased since Solis’s death.

Garcia says a third billboard will go up in a couple weeks.
