Donovan Bartley, 24, was found dead after an apparent shooting on February 7, 2021, in the 2200 block of Tybo Avenue in Reno. Officers responded to reports of multiple shots fired around 10:10 p.m. and discovered Bartley deceased at the scene.

The Reno Police Department is asking the public for help; Secret Witness is offering a $2,500 reward for information that leads to an arrest and prosecution. Tips can be given to the Reno Police Department at 775-334-2115, Secret Witness at 775-322-4900, or by texting a tip to 847411 with the keyword SW.

Bartley had a prior, unrelated arrest in December 2017 in Sparks tied to an attempted robbery and shooting investigation in the Bay Area; that case does not appear connected to his 2021 homicide. The investigation into his death remains open.

Does anyone who lived in the area or saw activity on Tybo Avenue that night have information to share?
