A $5,000 reward for information on the killer of a 19 year old college student was doubled to $10,000 Friday morning. 

Arshell Dennis III was hours from going back to school at St. John’s University on Sunday when he was killed in front of his home in the Ashburn neighborhood. Dennis is also the son of a Chicago police officer. 

CPD says the incident is being treated as a case of mistaken identity. 

Father Michael Pfleger and several volunteers went door to door in his neighborhood on Friday with reward notice flyers in the hopes that someone saw something and will come forward with information.
