Vallejo police have released a sketch of one of the two men who killed a pawnshop owner and wounded an employee last month. The suspect is described as a white male, 18 to 20 years old with a thin build, blond hair and eyebrows and blue eyes.

San Anselmo resident Timothy Pult, 49, was fatally shot around 3:10 p.m. on Dec. 20 at Pawn Advantage at 2581 Springs Road in Vallejo. A 45-year-old store employee also suffered serious injuries in the shooting and a dog was killed, police said.

Police have posted a video taken inside the store and still photos of the suspects on the department's Facebook page. (Scroll down to see video.)

An online fundraiser is underway for the support of the victim's wife and children, called The Tim Pult Memorial Fund. To date, $45,331 has been raised toward the $75,000 goal.

"Tim Pult was a tireless volunteer and contributor to the community he loved," the page reads. "He gave countless hours supporting St. Rita's school & parish, West Marin Little League and many other causes. He was incredibly unselfish in giving his time and energy in the service of others. "Tim was a dedicated and loving husband to Tina and Dad to Kyle and Rebecca. Please consider making a donation to support his family in this time of need."

The California Pawnbrokers Association has offered a reward up to $25,000 for the identification, arrest and conviction of the suspects. The association launched a crowdfunding page for the reward effort, entitled Justice for Timothy Pult, and has raised $18,205 as of this afternoon.

"Every day spent on this earth, Tim lived his life with unbounded love for his family and passion for his career," the pawnbrokers association states on the page. "Please help us memorialize his life by supporting the Pult family. All donations to this page will fund a reward for the capture of the two individuals responsible for this senseless crime, and will help ensure they are brought to justice."
