POLICE have increased the award for information on a 13-year-old cold case.
Croydon resident Kade Hall’s body was found 10 metres from Mount Dandenong Tourist Road in Kalorama on 15 March 2002.
The reward for information on Mr Hall’s death has risen from the original $100,000 to $1 million.
The reward would be paid at the discretion of the Victoria Police Chief Commissioner for information leading to the conviction of the persons responsible for his death.
The post mortem examination of Mr Hall’s body revealed he died from a single gunshot wound to the head.
Police investigators believe Mr Hall was killed on the evening of 28 February 2002.
Detectives believe the last time Mr Hall was seen alive was in the Croydon area around 10pm that same night.
Police are sure there are people out there with information but have failed to come forward so far.
The increase to the reward comes after an announcement late last year that all new rewards issued to solve Victorian murders will be set at $1 million and older unsolved murders adjusted to this figure as well.
Anyone with information should call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make an anonymous submission at crimestoppers.com.au
