\nOpelika, Alabama<\/p>\n
The Memorial Day holiday will be a time for many to relax.<\/p>\n
For the officers of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, it will be a time to regroup.<\/p>\n
Residents will soon be receiving flyers again seeking their help in the ongoing investigation into the 2009 murder of Tony W. Harrelson, whose case has also been featured on the America\u2019s Most Wanted television series.<\/p>\n
\u201cFlyers will begin going out, this time with a photo of the victim,\u201d said U.S. postal inspector Tony Robinson. \u201cSome have gone out this week in the Opelika area and will continue during June.\u201d<\/p>\n
The $100,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for Harrelson\u2019s death still stands, Robinson said. A number of roadside billboards in the metro-Montgomery area, Auburn, Opelika and Dadeville areas will also carry reward information, said Yulanda N. Burns, U.S. postal inspector and public information officer.<\/p>\n
Harrelson, 47, a postal contract truck driver, was shot to death on Friday, Oct. 2, 2009, between 5:45 and 6:15 p.m. at the Camp Hill Post Office while conducting postal duties.<\/p>\n
After Harrelson\u2019s murder in 2009, law enforcement sought the public\u2019s help with any information about the incident.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd postal inspectors are continuing to investigate any and all tips the public provides,\u201d Robinson said.<\/p>\n
