Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers is offering a reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for killing a Philadelphia man whose body was discovered last week along a rural road in Indiana County.
The death of Dashawn C. Green-Brewster, 27, of Philadelphia, was ruled a homicide by Indiana County Coroner Jerry L. Overman Jr. after an autopsy. No details on the manner of death have been released pending further investigation, but troopers said the death is suspicious.
