William Fredrick Andrews, 68, was found dead from a gunshot wound on August 11, 2024, on Keystone Avenue in Reno, Nevada. Known as Bill or Uncle Bill, he worked more than 45 years in the grocery industry, most recently for Scolari’s Food Company, and was remembered for his warm demeanor, love of classic rock, Harley Davidson motorcycles, and his dogs.

Investigators tied Andrews’ death to the disappearance of 48-year-old Patricia Portella-Wright from Kings Beach, California. Brent Clifford, 55, was identified as the last person seen with Portella-Wright and a person of interest in her disappearance; authorities say he fled Andrews’ homicide scene in Andrews’ red 2003 Chevrolet Blazer. A multi-agency investigation led to Clifford’s arrest in Portola, California, and to the discovery of Portella-Wright’s body off Mount Rose Highway in Washoe County. Clifford is a suspect in both homicides and faces charges including murder and identity theft.
