The Unified Police Department is offering a reward to the person who gives information that leads to the suspect in the shooting death of a woman found near the Great Saltair music venue in August.
A jogger found 42-year-old Akosita Kaufusi’s body Aug. 14, police said.
Later that month, police said they had “zero leads” in the case and asked those who knew something to come forward.
On Thursday, they announced a $1,500 reward for information that leads to charges in the homicide.
Anyone with information can call police at 385-468-9800.
