 Written by AARON CASTREJON CityWatch Editor PASADENA - A $20,000 reward has been reinstated for information leading to the arrest and conviction of a suspect in a four-year-old murder. Robert Arthur Calderon, a 27-year-old Altadena man, was found dead in the 600 block of North Mentor Avenue December 18, 2015. He died from multiple gunshot wounds. A description of the suspect or suspects is either unknown or is not being released. The reward originally expired in April 2018. Pasadena Police Lieutenant Jesse Carrillo said the reward will hopefully reinvigorate witnesses to come forward.
“Our detective worked diligently in his efforts to bring the individual(s) responsible to justice, and unfortunately time and lack of cooperation became the challenge,” Carrillo said. Anyone with information on the shooting is urged to call the Pasadena Police Department at 626-744-4501, Pasadena Police Detective Jordan Ling at 626-744-4081, or L.A. Regional Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).  Written by AARON CASTREJON CityWatch Editor PASADENA - Red Flag parking restrictions will go into effect at 8 a.m. today, officials said.
