Canton baby killer still out there, and FBI is offering a $5,000 reward

CANTON, Ohio (WOIO) - A big question people across Northeast Ohio are asking: who shot and killed 1-year-old Ace Lucas?

As a makeshift memorial grows for the boy outside of his home, that’s what investigators are trying to figure out.

It was a week ago today when police say gunmen shot into this house on Claredon Avenue SW several times.

One-year-old twins Ace and Arcel Lucas were sleeping on the couch when the bullets hit them; Ace in the head and Arcel in the leg.

Sadly, Ace died and Arcel is still recovering from his injuries.

Canton Police released video of the gunmen where you can see two suspects caught on camera, walking around with guns in their hands and lurking in the back of the home just before 2:30 a.m.

Investigators are pleading with the public to help identify them. The FBI is offering a $5,000 reward.
