THE VILLAGE, Oklahoma -
The family of a
young pregnant woman is offering a $5,000 reward, in hopes it leads to the
person who shot and killed her and her unborn child.
It was almost two weeks ago that Amber was found shot to death in her car near the corner of
Sunnymeade Pl. and Plymouth Ln., just a couple of blocks down from where she
lived with her father.
There are still
marks along the curb, yard and fence where her car crashed and where a neighbor
called 911 for help. But still no sign
of her killer. The family is
still too distraught to talk on camera, but did reach out in an email about the
$5,000 reward.

Her father writes:
"We have
offered this reward in hopes that the low life or low life's that did this to
our daughter and her unborn son will be caught and convicted of this
crime."
He goes on to
write:
"She had her
faults, but she had a big heart and tried to help anyone she thought needed
help."
The Village Deputy Police Chief says even though their detectives have been working around the clock, they have still
not arrested anyone for the double murder.
"I think there's a
lot of people that we have to interview, there's a lot of avenues we have to
look at," said Steve
Jagosh, The Village Police Dept. Deputy Chief.
Police originally
said two young black males were seen running from the scene late that night. And though police
say Amber did have a friend in the car who witnessed what happened, she has not
been able to identify the gunman.

"Somebody out
there knows what happened in this case," said Jagosh. "And that's what we're
hoping for - that with this reward money, that whoever witnessed this or
knows information for this comes forward. And hopefully this reward will
help with that."
And the Stokke
family may not be the only one's offering a reward in this case. The Village
Crime Stoppers Department may also be putting up a reward, but that amount is
yet to be determined.
If you have
any information, that could help, please call The Village police department
Crime Stoppers line at (405) 751-1234. You can remain
anonymous, but again, you may be eligible for that $5,000 reward.
