Law enforcement agencies and several local organizations have announced combined rewards totaling $80,000 for tips leading to the apprehension of those responsible for the mass shooting in Stockton, California, on November 29.

The FBI is offering up to $50,000 for information that results in the suspects arrest. Authorities are urging anyone who captured photos or videos of the event to submit them at tips.fbi.gov, including details about when and where the media was recorded.

Stockton Crime Stoppers initially offered a $10,000 reward, which later increased to $25,000 after contributions from Mayor Christina Fugazi ($10,000) and District 2 Councilmember Mariela Ponce ($5,000). Anonymous tips can be provided by calling (209) 946-0600 or visiting stocktoncrimestoppers.org.

The Young Peace and Justice Foundation, a national nonprofit focused on reducing violence and promoting youth and community safety, is providing a reward of up to $5,000 for information that directly leads to the suspects arrest. Tips for this reward can be reported to the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office at (209) 468-4400.

Authorities have not yet released the identities of the suspects, and the investigation is ongoing. The shooting took place during a 2-year-olds birthday celebration at Monkey Space banquet hall, resulting in four deaths and thirteen injuries. The victims have been identified by family members as 8-year-old Journey Rose Reotutar Guerrero, 8-year-old Maya Lupian, 14-year-old Amari Peterson, and 21-year-old Susano Archuleta.

Sheriff Patrick Withrow described the incident as a targeted attack involving multiple suspects. He stressed that investigators are meticulously reviewing evidence and interviewing witnesses. "We urge everyone to provide information, even if it seems minor or contradicts what is circulating online," Withrow said. "Any detail, no matter how small, could be critical."
