A $30,000 reward has been offered to the public to help solve a 2016 murder of a 16-year-old girl in Lynwood.

LYNWOOD, Calif. (KABC) -- A $30,000 reward has been offered to the public to help solve a 2016 murder of a 16-year-old girl in Lynwood.

Los Angeles County sheriff's officials said they hope the reward will help move the case forward. Two years ago, Danah Rojo-Rivas was struck by a stray bullet as she rode home from church in the backseat of her mother's car.

A family was mourning the death of a 16-year-old girl struck down in the family car by a stray bullet from a gang shooting in Lynwood.

They were at the corner of Euclid Avenue and Long Beach Boulevard when the shots rang out between two cars involved in a chase. The chase was also caught on surveillance video.

Detectives have been looking for a silver or gray four-door vehicle, possibly a Ford Taurus.

Anyone with more information is urged to call the L.A. County Sheriff's Department's homicide bureau.
