So, anybody with information about that or what this was about is encouraged to call."
Bridges said that black sedan was parked on the 3300 block of 4th Ave.
Police say Crime Stoppers and ATF have provided money to increase the reward in the case to $3,500 for information leading to arrest and prosecution.
