No progress on Jam Master Jay investigation

Police say the investigation into the 2002 shooting of Run-DMC's Jam Master Jay is progressing slowly, with no arrest despite a $60,000 reward.

It was two years this weekend since the murder of Run-DMC's Jam Master Jay, and police reported their investigations into the fatal shooting at Jay's New York recording studio had not developed much - frequently hampered by inconclusive leads, reluctant witnesses and negative publicity. The only real conclusion reached is that Jay almost certainly knew his killer - but the $60,000 award for information leading to the arrest of that killer has yet to encourage anyone in the know to come forward. A spokesman for the New York Police Department admitted this weekend: "The case is progressing at a slow rate."
