The FBI is offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the suspect(s) responsible for the murder of Nykeria Simmons.

### Details:

The Federal Bureau of Investigation's Tampa Field Office and the Apopka Police Department are seeking information about the death of 15-year-old Nykeria Simmons.  Simmons was shot and killed on Sunday, March 15, 2020, at approximately 12:20 a.m. at the Circle-K gas station located at 277 East Main Street in Apopka, Florida.  The police investigation has revealed Simmons was not the intended victim, and this incident was not a random act of violence.
