Here are the top three stories in Reno today:

  1. Police are seeking the public's help in the search for two suspects connected to a recent murder of a teenager in a north Reno home. The Reno Police Department responded on Mar. 7 at 9 p.m. to Cornwall Circle in the Raleigh Heights neighborhood after reports came in of a residential burglary. Officers found the body of a 16-year-old inside the home and two unidentified men were seen leaving the home shortly after 9 p.m. (FoxReno.com)
  2. The Reno Aces are getting ready for their Apr. 5 season opener but they're not waiting to invite fans in on the excitement. The team will be hosting a family-friendly fan fest this Saturday, Mar. 19 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Greater Nevada Field. Ballpark hot dogs will be $1 and guests can enter a raffle for ticket packets, tour the newly renovated stadium, enjoy activities for kids, and take pictures with Archie, the Reno Aces mascot. (KOLO)
  3. A Reno man has been arrested on arson charges after allegedly starting fires along the Truckee River. Investigators responded to the river near 4th Street and Chism Drive Mar. 15 in the evening to multiple fires. Witnesses say they saw 40-year-old Corey Arrive setting the fires. Citizens were able to help stop the blazes before they spread. (FoxReno.com)
