Police said the family’s portion is only available to someone who gives credible information within 90 days of July 7, 2015.

Police have no leads in the case.

Marlowe, 25, died from a gunshot wound to the abdomen on Sept. 21, 2012, at the Hertz Rental Car location at 3492 Satellite Boulevard. She died later at a local hospital.

Before being taken away in an ambulance, she was able to tell police she didn’t know the man, and that he was a black male wearing a blue shirt.

Police said Marlowe was at the back of the business cleaning a rental car when a male confronted her and shot her with a hand gun for an unknown reason. It also was not known if the suspect fled on foot or in a vehicle.

“Officers saturated the area and conducted area searches and dumpster searches in an attempt to identify a suspect or discover evidence in this case,” police spokesperson Cpl. Michele Pihera said in an email. “Despite the heavy presence of officers, no credible leads could be established. Over the next several days and weeks, scheduled canvases of the area were conducted by officers and detectives. Again, no credible leads were uncovered.”
