$50,000 reward in case of missing Falcon Hts man

A year after a Falcon Heights man disappeared, officials are offering a $50,000 reward in the case.

Authorities say they suspect foul play in the disappearance of 57-year-old Harold Schroetter, and the reward is for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible.

Schroetter was last seen at his home on the morning of Feb. 26, 2009. His live-in girlfriend reported him missing that afternoon.

Authorities later found Schroetter's blood in the trunk of his girlfriend's vehicle. But officials haven't found Schroetter's body.

The reward is being offered through Spotlight on Crime, a nonprofit fund set up by Minnesota businesses and law enforcement to re-energize cold cases.
