Donations continue to come in for information leading to arrest in Delphi case
DELPHI, Ind. (WISH) – A restaurant has made a second donation for information leading to an arrest for the murders of Libby German, 14, and Abby Williams, 13, after donating $5,775 to the reward.
According to Indiana State Police, the reward for information in the Delphi murders now stands at $216,165 thanks to Mitchell’s Mexican Restaurant in downtown Delphi.
Mitchell’s Mexican Restaurant also donated $6,300 to the fund on Monday of proceeds they collected from a benefit they held on Monday, Feb. 20, plus donations from customers. In total, the restaurant has donated $12,075.
“A lot of people are scared, watching their backs, locking their houses when they maybe didn’t use to,” owner, Corey Mitchell Dunbar said. “We’re trying to help out anyway we could.”
Local celebrities have also taken part in donating toward the fund. Colts owner Jim Irsay and former Colts kicker Pat McAfee announced Wednesday morning they donated about $100,000 to nearly double the reward at that time.
Some of the other donations include $9,000 from the office of United States Representative Todd Rokita, $25,000 from the FBI, $10,000 from the Indiana Packers Corporation, and the Lafayette Bank and Trust donated $1,000.
Since Feb. 23, the reward has increased more than $160,000.
