Fort Collins family offers $50,000 reward in Paul Gallenstein homicide case

Paul Gallenstein, a 64‑year‑old resident of Fort Collins, Colorado, was shot while walking the Foothill Trail at the Reservoir Ridge Natural Area on September 10, 2023. His body was discovered around 10:18 p.m., and investigators later re‑classified the incident as a homicide. No firearm was recovered, and recent heavy rain and dense vegetation hampered the search for evidence.

The Gallenstein family has placed a $50,000 reward for information leading to the resolution of the case and urges anyone who was near the trail between 9:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. that day to contact detectives. Billboards throughout Fort Collins display the appeal for tips, reflecting the family's ongoing effort to obtain justice.
