Detectives with the Des Moines Police Department continue to receive tips from the triple homicide in the 22800 block of Pacific Hwy S on Sunday, September 26th, 2021. We are actively reviewing surveillance video captured in the area during the time of the homicides and have identified several persons of interest. We have also observed at least six witnesses and bystanders who were holding up cell phones, presumably recording video before, during and after the shooting takes place.
Friends and family of one of the victims, Ezra Tyler, have reached out to Crime Stoppers to add to the reward currently being offered for information that leads to the arrest of a suspect or suspects in this homicide. We are hopeful the increased total reward of up to $5000.00 will entice more people to come forward.
We are in need of anyone who can help identify suspects or provide us cell phone video. We are urging anyone who was at the club during this incident, or who may have cell phone video taken during this time, to contact the police department at 206-878-3301 or by e-mail at jwest@desmoineswa.gov.
