Immediate assistance with arrest
The tips of five people ‘whose information directly helped to keep him on’ are rewarded. They split a pot of 50,000 dollars (more than 46,000 euros).
“Thanks to these people, the police were able to do their job and get a dangerous person off the street,” said the New York City mayor. According to his lawyers, Frank James also called the police himself to turn himself in.
