The reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of Avery Miler, the man police in D.C. believe shot and killed a Baltimore solar panel installer in early August, has more than doubled to $55,000. Aryeh Wolf, 25, of Baltimore, was shot the afternoon of Aug. 10 in Southeast while installing solar panels, D.C. police said.

Surveillance video caught 27-year-old Avery Miler nearby, with a gun.

Last week, Miler was spotted by officers in Northeast as they responded to a 911 call about his location. Police confronted Miler in the 5300 block of Ames Street Northeast, where he fired shots at them before barricading himself in a nearby building. No officers were hurt in the shooting, but Miler managed to escape police without being arrested. Now, the search approaches its second month.

The new reward, up from the $25,000 originally offered in August, is a combined effort on behalf of multiple law enforcement agencies, including the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Washington Field Division, the U.S. Marshals and the FBI Washington Field Office. Police are asking anyone with information on the case or the suspect to call them at 202-727-9099 or texting 50411. Tipsters can be anonymous.
