RENO, Nev. (AP) - A $2,500 reward has been posted in Reno for information leading to the arrest and prosecution of a suspect or suspects in the killing of homeless man whose body was found near the Truckee River a few blocks from the downtown casino district.

Secret Witness announced the reward on Tuesday as Reno police continued a homicide investigation after the 50-year-old victim was found over the weekend lying face down with blood around his face.

Police say the man, whose name was not released, was discovered about 7 a.m. Saturday along the riverside bike path near Lake Street.



Officer Tim Broadway says detectives are actively following leads but asked for anyone with information to contact them at 775-334-2188 or Secret Witness at 775-322-4900.
