SANTA ANA (KCAL, KCBS) The reward to catch the person who killed 6-year-old Aiden Leos has now increased to $200,000.
“The reward has been increased to $200,000 as of tonight,” Carla Lacy, Aiden’s grandmother, said during a Tuesday night vigil. “This $200,000 is for the arrest and conviction of the man and the woman that took Aiden’s life.”
And while Aiden’s mom was too distraught to attend the memorial, she asked her family to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers.
“She just is so in shock,” Lacy said. “She can’t believe the outpouring of love on this level. She recognizes that the nation and the world is praying for her.”
