NEW HAVEN, Conn — The United States Marshals announced on Tuesday they are increasing the reward in the search for the person of interest in the Kevin Jiang homicide investigation.
The reward has now been increased to up to $10,000 for any information that will lead to the location and arrest of 29-year-old MIT graduate student Qinxuan Pan. He was last seen driving with family members in Brookhaven or Duluth, Georgia. Law officials say he should be considered armed and dangerous.
Marshals say that Pan currently is charged with one count of unlawful flight to avoid prosecution and interstate theft of a vehicle, which stems from the crime on February 6. Any information will be considered confidential. Persons having information should contact the U.S. Marshals at 1-877-926-8332.
The 26-year-old Jiang was shot and killed on February 6 in the Goatville neighborhood in New Haven, where many Yale students and employees live. He was enrolled at the Yale School of Environment and was part of the class of 2022. His funeral is Saturday.
