The robbery and slaying of a Minnesota man on a dark street in Philadelphia will be among the cases featured tonight on "America's Most Wanted."

Meanwhile, the reward keeps growing in June 15 slaying of Beau Zabel, 23. The Citizens Crime Commission is now offering $35,000 for information leading to the person who pulled the trigger.

The segment on Zabel will run for about four minutes, which producer Olivia Clayton characterized as "pretty substantial" for not including a reenactment. Clayton said the show, which airs at 8 p.m. on KMSP-TV, Ch. 9, will include surveillance footage and comments from Philadelphia investigators.
