SAVANNAH, Ga. (WTOC) - A Savannah restaurant owner is offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest in the acid attack.

Southern Cross Hospitality is made up of several restaurants including Collins Quarter which has a location in Forsyth Park.

The restaurant group says many of their employees and their families live near the park.

And they want a suspect arrested as soon as possible to help with safety concerns.

“It affects more than just Ashley,” said Sasha Nasrabadi, Director of Events, Southern Cross Hospitality. “It affects anyone that’s alone walking the streets at night, feeling unsafe currently because of the situation that happened. We really want to be able to provide a platform for someone that feels like they don’t really have the capacity to go forward if they have information.”

Collins Quarter is hoping other businesses in the area will come forward to address safety efforts.

If you have any tips, contact Savannah police.

The FBI is offering a $5,000 reward for info leading to an arrest.
