Arrest Warrant Obtained In Grand Junction Slaying

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (AP) - Grand Junction police have obtained an arrest warrant related to the slaying of a man whose body was found in the Colorado River last year.

Police say 23-year-old Joseph Lee Conn already is in custody in Sacramento, Calif., on unrelated charges. Now he is wanted in Colorado on a charge of first-degree murder in connection with the death of 36-year-old Willard Michael "Mike" Bobbitt.

Investigators aren't saying what led them to Conn.
