INDIANAPOLIS -- The family of an Indianapolis man who was murdered last month is pleading for answers and offering a reward to help find the person responsible for his death.

Tristan Twilley, 44, was shot and killed while leaving a barber shop near 34th Street and Keystone Avenue on March 30.

Family members say Twilley was well known for his involvement in the community.

They are offering a $1,000 reward to anyone with information that would lead to an arrest in Twilley’s murder.

Twilley’s cousin, Jasmine Jackson-Lewis said the family just wants closure.

"Every day I wake up and I'm angry, and I have to pray, and I have to ask for forgiveness. And I do forgive them, but you have to be held accountable for the things that you do,” said Jackson-Lewis.
