Reward Increased In Hastings Murder

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Police in Hastings were searching for a murder weapon along the Mississippi River on Monday, as part of the investigation into the fatal shooting of Jason Reuter.

The 34-year-old was found dead in his front yard nearly two months ago.

Reuter's June 22 death was the first murder in Hastings in a decade, and his family believes someone in the city knows something.

That's why they're now offering a $15,000 reward for information about the murder, an increase of $10,000 from their initial reward offer.

There is an additional $1,000 reward from Crime Stoppers. If you have any information, call Hasting police or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
