Friends and colleagues of Hollywood publicist Ronni Chasen, shot dead in her car, raise $100,000 reward to find her killer
Hollywood publicists shocked by the death of their colleague Ronni Chasen have rallied round to raise a reward for the person who finds her killer. Chasen, well-known for working tirelessly to promote her celebrity clients, was shot dead in her car as she drove home from a party after attending Tuesday's premiere of the new Cher and Christina Aguilera film, Burlesque.
Tributes flowed quickly from her stunned community and, absent any hard leads in the homicide investigation, so did money.
The Palm Springs International Film Festival, which Chasen worked with for many years, on Wednesday offered a $100,000 (£62,300) reward for information leading to the conviction of her killer.

While much of the world is busy bidding farewell to 2009, "Doctor Who" fans will be saying a different type of goodbye on January 1 when series star David Tennant concludes his celebrated run on the long-running BBC science-fiction series. One of the most popular actors to ever play the iconic role, Tennant has been the face of "Doctor Who" since 2005 and led the series to its most successful run (both in the UK and abroad) in its 47-year history.
