The San Francisco Police Department has issued a significant increase in reward money, now offering $250,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the suspects involved in a double homicide case dating back to 2016. The shooting, which claimed the lives of Lindsay Elaine McCollum, 27, and Eddie Wayne Tate, 51, known as Tennessee, occurred on the corner of 16th Street and South Van Ness Avenue in San Francisco, where the victims resided in a makeshift wooden shelter.
Initially, the case had grown cold, but with the increased reward, SFPD hopes to generate new leads and encourage anyone with information to come forward. To refresh public interest and memory, the SFPD's official news release also called attention to a person of interest they are still seeking to identify.
Community members and tipsters are strongly urged to contact the SFPD Tip Line at 1-415-575-4444 or to send their tips anonymously via text to TIP411, starting the message with "SFPD".
