$10,000 Reward Reestablished for Information Related to Double Homicide in Cerritos

The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors has unanimously reestablished a $10,000 reward today, at the request of Supervisor Don Knabe, for information related to a double homicide in the City of Cerritos.

On Thursday, October 26, 2006, at 4:00 p.m., Cerritos Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to a residence on Rose Street regarding a rescue call. Upon their arrival, the deputies entered the home and learned that two male adults had been shot to death. One victim, Joshua Shin, age 32, lived at the house with his parents, and the other victim, Matthew Morrison, age 23, was a visitor. Homicide investigators have several significant leads and reward monies may help to motivate those with specific knowledge about this case to come forward.

It is important for the County of Los Angeles to display its resolve in protecting innocent citizens from appalling crimes, said Supervisor Knabe. In order to bring this suspect to justice, and demonstrate our intolerance to such deplorable crimes, I believe the reward for this case should be re-established, hoping someone will come forward in order that we can bring this suspect to justice.

Any person having any information related to this crime is asked to contact Detective Richard Green of the Homicide Bureau at the Cerritos Sheriff’s Station at
(562) 860-0044.
