KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - The reward for information about suspects in a drive-by shooting that killed a 6-year-old Kansas City girl is now up to $12,000.

Angel Hooper died Friday night when shots were fired into the parking lot of a 7-Eleven where the girl and her father had just bought bubblegum.

The Greater Kansas City Crime Stoppers group said Wednesday that 7-Eleven Stores, which operates the chain of convenience stores, has donated $10,000 for information leading to an arrest. Tips will remain anonymous.



Police have reported getting little help from possible witnesses. Investigators hope to hear from some of the many people who were in the parking lot of the south Kansas City store when the shooting broke out.
