Reward Incrased In Kirksville Murder Case

A Kirksville business owner is chipping in $5,000 hoping to catch an accused killer.

Mark Henry owns Midwest Windmill. On Facebook, he pledged $5,000 to help catch 38 year old Jesse Rongey. That brings the total reward to $10,000.

Rongey accused of killing 54 year old Stephen Munn and mutliating the body. Investigators think Rongey is likely to be hiding in area woods. Thousand Hills park has been closed because of the manhunt. It reopens today, though wooded hiking trails are still closed.
