Two sisters are seeking the public's help in finding the gunman who shot and killed their brother in Camden, New Jersey in this week's Crime Fighters report.

Annette Perez says, "Andrew was a funny guy. He loved kids, he loved to joke, play with friends and family."

31-year-old Andrew Perez is remembered fondly by his sisters.

His sister, Shanelle Perez says "He was just a fun loving sarcastic person, he always kept people smiling and laughing."

On Friday, June 6th, the young father of four was out very early in the morning.

"To this day I don't know why Andrew was out at that time of day," said Annette.

Just after 3:00 a.m., Perez was sitting in the driver's seat of a silver 2005 Honda Civic at South 9th Street and Atlantic Avenue in Camden.

Detective Anthony Roccin from the Camden County Prosecutor's Office said, "Responding officers located a vehicle that was crashed and located inside was Andrew Perez."

They say Perez had been shot multiple times and was pronounced dead at the hospital.

Investigators say they have surveillance video from the area.

Detective Roccin added, "With a little bit of help from...individuals, witnesses, community members, we might be able to bring this one in."

The Citizens Crime Commission is administering a $1,000 dollar reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible.

All you have to do is call 215-546-TIPS.

All calls will remain anonymous.

"At the end of the day my family believes in the justice system and we believe eventually this case will get solved," said Annette.
