LONG BEACH, Calif. (KABC) -- The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors is offering a $10,000 reward in connection with the murder of a 21-year-old woman who was shot and killed in an alley in Long Beach last year.

Alicia Faith Todd was fatally shot in the 1100 block of E. 21st Street at about 1:15 a.m. on June 24, police said.

A person called 911 after finding the victim's body. During the later investigation, police learned the caller had heard gunshots around midnight but failed to report it until coming across the murder scene.

The Signal Hill woman had been struck by gunfire in the upper torso. She was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics.

Detectives believe the suspect may have known Todd. Anyone with information or who may have witnessed the shooting was asked to come forward and contact Long Beach police homicide detectives at (562) 570-7244.
