**NEW LEADS NEEDED**

Investigators have ruled out the vehicle of interest in the hit-and-run crash that killed Dr. Cathy Donovan on Highway 169 in Mille Lacs County. The crash happened on Nov. 13 while Dr. Donovan was walking her dogs just south of Grand Casino Mille Lacs.

We are still investigating leads, but need your help to bring forward any new information that could help. Every detail matters — and even the smallest tip could make a crucial difference in solving this case and bringing closure to Dr. Donovan’s family.

Maybe you weren't the driver, but you might know someone who was on that route that day. If you know anything, we urge you to come forward and help us solve this tragic case.

There is a $10,000 reward for anyone with information leading to an arrest and conviction.

If you have any information, please contact Sgt. Jason Brown at 218-316-3026 or email at [email protected].
