Crime Stoppers of Puget Sound is offering up to $1,000 for information that will lead to an arrest in the homicide of a West Hill man Aug. 19.
Minh Phu was celebrating his 22nd birthday with friends at a house on Langston Road just outside the Seattle city limits when he went outside to charge his cell phone in a friend's car, a green Audi A4.
Sometime after 1:35 a.m., sheriff's deputies responded to Langston Road to a report of shots fired. When deputies arrived, they discovered Phu in his shot and sitting in a car. He died at the scene.
His family made a plea Wednesday in downtown Seattle for anyone with information about the fatal shooting to step forward.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Crime Stoppers' confidential phone number, 1-800-222-TIPS. Those with information also can text SPD+ the message to 274637 or submit a tip online at crimestoppers.com.
