TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) - Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback is authorizing a $5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of those involved in the death of an Oklahoma woman who was found floating in a reservoir.

The governor issued an executive order Tuesday in the case of 33-year-old Cassie Ann Easom, of Miami (MY-AM’-uh), Oklahoma.

She was found Dec. 7 in the Elk Creek Reservoir in southeast Kansas and was later declared dead. Investigators say she was shot several times in the head.
