CRYSTAL, Minn. (AP) - The reward has increased for information about a 10-year-old Crystal boy who has been missing for a week.

Crystal Police, along with the Crystal Crime Prevention Board and Minnesota CrimeStoppers, is now offering a reward of up to $12,000 for information leading to the arrest and prosecution of whoever was involved in the disappearance of Barway Collins.

Barway was last seen after school March 18 at his apartment complex.

On Tuesday, police said the boy's father, Pierre Collins, has not been completely honest with authorities and is now considered a suspect in the child's disappearance.

Collins has told reporters he had nothing to do with his son's disappearance.
