No arrest has been made, making this the only open murder case in Kent County.

But Hickman, in a telephone interview Tuesday, said information continues to be gathered — mostly in dribs and drabs, and as recently as a month ago.

“I don’t think this is a case that could never be solved, but we are missing that one piece of the puzzle that will help us answer the questions. ... I think that person is out there,” said Hickman, who is commander of the sheriff’s office Criminal Investigation Division.

A $2,500 cash reward is still being offered for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for Elbourn’s death.
