Reward Rises for Burnt Cedar Tree Poisoner | Sacramento News

Someone’s been secretly poisoning trees at Burnt Cedar Beach near Lake Tahoe, with 28 trees hit in three separate attacks since 2022. The reward for catching the culprit has soared to $147,000 — split between $25,000 from the Incline Village General Improvement District and $122,000 from private donors. Authorities are seeking info that leads to an arrest and conviction, with deputies responding multiple times since late July. The sheriff’s office won’t reveal what was used, but suspects all incidents are linked — potentially leading to serious felony charges. If you’ve got tips, contact Washoe County Sheriff’s Office at 775-328-3001 (case 26-4225) or use Secret Witness for a $1,000 anonymous tip. This environmental vandalism is unacceptable in such a cherished natural spot — and this massive reward hopes to bring justice fast.
