Brinks offers reward in guard's death
GREENSBORO - Brinks Inc. is offering a $25,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of whoever killed a guard outside Old Navy last month, Greensboro police said today.
Juan Esteban Salado, 25, was shot Dec. 15 in a robbery outside the store at Friendly Center at 3000 Northline Ave. Salado, an armored truck guard with Brinks, was shot about 10 a.m. in an ambush-style robbery after picking up bags containing bank deposits.
Police said a man in hospital scrubs and dressed as a woman went into the business and waited for the armored truck to show up. The suspect then shot Salado in the head before fleeing to a vehicle waiting nearby.
Police said in a news release today that they continue to follow leads.
In addition to the reward from Brinks, Crimestoppers is offering a reward of up to $2,000.
Police ask anyone with information on this crime to call Crimestoppers at 373-1000.
