$20K reward offered to find driver that killed toddler and father in Long Beach

The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors increased the reward to find the hit-and-run driver who allegedly killed a 3-year-old and her father in 2022. The deadly crash happened in North Long Beach on the night of March 1, 2022. Samantha Palacios, 3, and her father, Jose Palacios-Gonzalez, 42, were asleep in their apartment on the 6600 block of Rose Avenue when suspect Octavio Montano Islas slammed his 2014 Dodge Ram pickup truck through their wall. The Long Beach Police Department said Montano Islas was drunk and driving away from a nearby bar. Initially, LA County offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to the apprehension and conviction of Montano Islas. Supervisor Janice Hahn increased the reward to $20,000 after it expired this year. "Today Samantha would have been seven years old, possibly starting 2nd grade in a few weeks, had Octavio Montano Islas not brutally cut her life short. Nothing will fill the gap left by the deaths of Samantha and her dad Jose, but we need to find this driver and hold him accountable. Their families deserve justice," Hahn said. Following the deadly collision, family members and supporters pleaded for justice and implored Montano Islas to turn himself in to the police. "Nothing is going to return our loved ones, but Octavio Montano Islas has to pay for what he did," said mother Esnelia Palacios in 2023. "I ask you to please help us do justice." Investigators described Islas as a 5-foot-8, 160-pound man with black hair and tattoos on his right forearm. Authorities urged anyone with information to contact Scott Jenson of the Long Beach Police Department Detective Division at (562) 570-7218. "To the suspect that took the lives of Jose and Samantha, know this: our officers will not be dissuaded by the passage of time," Long Beach Police Chief Wally Hebeish said in 2023. "We will continue our investigation until we find and arrest you. You will be held accountable for the death of Jose and Samantha — and you will be held responsible for the subsequent pain you've caused by failing to turn yourself in."

Wiltshire PCC: ‘CCTV helps us make our streets safer for all'

CCTV is being hailed as a key tool in tackling crime and supporting community safety. Wiltshire and Swindon Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) Philip Wilkinson has reinforced the vital role of surveillance across the county, especially amid rising incidents in Swindon and other areas. Swindon's Central area has recorded more than 1,000 incidents this year, with increases also seen in Old Town, Mannington and Western, Walcot and Parks North. Mr Wilkinson said: "Everyone deserves to feel safe where they live, work and visit. "CCTV is one of the most effective tools we have to support that goal." Swindon Borough Council operates 1,100 cameras from its control centre, with operators monitoring public spaces in real time to help police respond quickly to incidents and gather crucial evidence to support investigations. The footage has helped identify suspects, protect vulnerable people and sometimes prevent crimes from escalating. New cameras are being installed in Trowbridge at anti-social behaviour hot spots such as the Town Park sports courts and Biss Meadows Country Park. Earlier this week, Mr Wilkinson visited the CCTV suite in Warminster, which uses 49 cameras to monitor the town, neighbouring Westbury, and the West Wilts Trading Estate. Mr Wilkinson said: "I was hugely impressed with the setup in Warminster and how closely they work with their local neighbourhood policing team to provide intelligence and evidence which has been used to secure significant convictions in the town." He emphasised that CCTV is just one part of a wider approach. Mr Wilkinson said: "CCTV doesn't work in isolation, it's part of a broader strategy that includes neighbourhood policing, community engagement and strong local partnerships. "Together, these efforts help create environments where people feel secure and supported. "Our investment in CCTV is an investment in making streets safer. "It's about giving our communities peace of mind and ensuring our officers have the resources they need to keep people safe." Philip Wilkinson OBE was re-elected as Wiltshire's Police and Crime Commissioner in May 2024 for a second term. As PCC, he is responsible for overseeing the work of Wiltshire Police, ensuring the running of an efficient and effective police service, holding the chief constable to account on behalf of the county's residents, as well as commissioning key services that help make the county's communities safer and support victims.
