The city and ATF are offering the reward. Authorities are still looking for the shooters involved in the incident that occurred at 2:50 p.m. on Feb. 17 at SEPTA's Olney Transportation Center. Eight people ranging from 17 to 71 years old were hurt in the incident. All victims were treated at Albert Einstein Medical Center.

Another was also described as being tall with a thin build. He was wearing all dark clothing and white or light-colored shoes.
