The reward for information into a Montgomery shooting that critically injured a child has increased.

Central Alabama Crime Stoppers on Friday announced a reward of $10,000 for information that leads police to the shooter or shooters.

Montgomery police and fire medics were dispatched about 12:30 a.m. Wednesday to the 3200 block of Raintree Drive on a report of a person shot. The child was inside a home when he was shot.

They arrived to find a boy with life-threatening injuries. He was rushed to the hospital.

Few details have been released, including the age of the young child.

Police Chief Jim Graboys said the shooting appeared to be targeted at someone, but not the child.

“I do not believe this was a random event,’’ he said.

Central Alabama Crime Stoppers said a red Nissan Altima was seen in the area at the time of the shooting.

The agency initially offered a $5,000 reward for information that leads police to the suspect or suspects.

Crime Stoppers Executive Director Tony Garrett said Montgomery District 6 City Councilman Oronde Mitchell and Montgomery County District 2 Commissioner Carmen Moore-Zeigler have each pledged $2,500. That brings the total reward to $10,000, to be paid upon the arrest of anyone who provides information leading to the capture of those responsible for the crime.

Graboys addressed the public Wednesday, urging the suspects to turn themselves in.

“You will be looking over your shoulder until justice is served,” Graboys said.

To the victim and his family, Graboys said, “Our hearts, prayers and feelings are extended to you with the hope of a good and healthy recovery for the young victim.”

“That ultimately our deepest wish in all of this, for the welfare of the family and the welfare of that
