Family members of a Maplewood man killed in a hit-and-run over the weekend are still searching for answers.

Choulykor Vue, 26, died Saturday night when a vehicle struck him on the 1200 block of Lakewood Drive North. Vue's family held a press conference on Tuesday afternoon and announced a $20,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.

"If you have any information in regard to this incident, please come forward so that my family could have closure," Gaocher Yang, Vue's sister, said. "All we want is justice and peace. My brother didn't deserve this."

Investigators say they don't have a vehicle or drive description. Police would like to speak with a man with a ponytail driving a black sedan that appeared to stop behind the striking SUV because he may have information.

The family originally offered a $10,000 reward on Sunday and upped the amount on Tuesday.
