Authorities released surveillance video Tuesday of arson suspects who set a bank on fire the day after a fatal police shooting in Sherman Park that touched off two nights of violent unrest in the Sherman Park neighborhood in August.

Milwaukee police and the U.S.Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are asking for the public’s help in identifying those responsible for arson at the BMO Harris Bank, 3536 W. Fond du Lac Ave., on Aug. 13, according to a police news release.

The ATF is offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those involved.

Several people broke windows at the bank to enter it, and before leaving one of them set an item on fire, police said. The fire spread and caused about $1 million in damage.

During those two nights in August, eight businesses were torched, at least six squad cars were damaged, at least four officers were injured and two teens were wounded in separate shootings. Authorities estimated the damage at several millions of dollars.

Anyone with information about the bank arson is asked to call the Milwaukee Police Department at (414) 935-7360.

Editor's note: Authorities initially said the reward was $10,000 but later clarified it is "up to" $10,000.
