Reward for murder information
MYSTERY donors have offered a £10,000 reward for information leading to the conviction of a murderer. Glen Hudson, 35, originally from Walthamstow, was shot by accident as he drank with friends at an MTV Lick Party in Bournemouth last year. Police say that they hope the reward could prompt someone to give them vital information to help them in their search for the gunman. Det Supt Phil James of Dorset Police said: "I'm sure there are people in the London area who know the identity of Glen's killer or know someone who does. "I am appealing to people to search their consciences and imagine how they would feel if it was their brother, son, father or husband who been killed in such tragic circumstances. "There were up to 60 people in the vicinity of the shooting and so far only a minority have come forward. "We are working hard to trace the rest and it is vital that we do so because they may have seen or heard the shooting or have information on what happened before or after the gun went off." Police say that they now have a good idea of what happened at the MTV party in Elements nightclub on December 14, 2001, the night of Mr Hudson's death. They believe there was a dispute between two men and, as a result, a friend of one of the men was shot through the nose. That young man, who came from Richmond in Surrey, miraculously survived but the bullet carried on for several yards and hit Mr Hudson in the back of the head. The family of Mr Hudson, who live in Walthamstow, do not wish to speak to the media but issued this statement: "The whole family is absolutely devastated at Glen's death. "For the sake of the family, please come forward if you have any information at all no matter how small or insignificant it may seem. "We cannot put our loss behind us until Glen's killer is found. We will never forget Glen." Mr Hudson, a soldier, served with the First Regiment of the Royal Horse Artillery in Tidworth, Wiltshire. Two donors, who have asked to remain anonymous, have offered a £10,000 reward for information leading to the conviction of his killer. Anyone with information should call 01202 317 493 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. CAPTION: Glen Hudson 13:18 Friday 17th May 2002
