4 Years Later, Reward Grows In Missing Woman Case

PUEBLO, Colo. (CBS4) - The reward in the case of a missing woman from Denver has been increased to $100,000.

Kelsie Schelling disappeared four years ago and her family has long believed she was murdered. She went missing after she traveled from Denver to Pueblo to tell her boyfriend she was pregnant.

She hasn't been heard from or seen since.

"It's still an active and open case. We are still progressing on it. It is not like a cold case where other cold cases usually go cold within a year or two. This has been four years and they're still doing things on it," said Pueblo Police Sgt. Eric Gonzales.

Schelling's family has organized a balloon release in honor of Kelsie on Saturday in the parking lot of the Walmart in Pueblo.
