COLUMBUS, OHIO (AP) -- A minister led a prayer for justice during a candlelight vigil for a Columbus teen shot to death last weekend while egging cars.

Rev. Ruth Pribe of Trinity United Methodist Church also said that the hundreds who gathered Tuesday night outside Garrett Burton's high school pray that his killer steps forward.

The boy's father says the 16-year-old was shot in the head by someone who walked up and scolded Garrett and some friends while they were tossing eggs at passing cars around 3 a.m. Saturday.

Investigators say the other boys haven't offered any useful details. Police have no suspects.

Central Ohio Crime Stoppers is offering a $2,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest.
