Whereabouts of Accused Reno Killer-Sniper Remains a Mystery

Police reported no major new leads Saturday in the search for a Reno man accused of killing his estranged wife and shooting the judge who handled their divorce, but remained optimistic they would track him down.

Darren Mack, 45, a wealthy pawn shop owner, has not been heard from since he phoned a cousin in Moraga, Calif., shortly after Monday's stabbing death of his wife, Charla Mack, and sniper shooting of Family Court Judge Chuck Weller.

With the assistance of the FBI, detectives working around the clock continued to sift through hundreds of tips they have received from across the country.

"Absolutely, we're not giving up hope of finding him," Reno police Sgt. Joe Burfield said Saturday. "We definitely have hope for a lead that will provide a major break in the case."
