A reward fund has been established for information leading to the killer of a 9-year-old Santa Ana schoolgirl, authorities said. The Southland Corp., owner of 7-Eleven convenience stores, has donated $1,000, Santa Ana Police Lt. Robert Chavez said. The fund to help find the killer of Patricia Lopez is being handled by the Adam Walsh Child Resource Center in Orange. The third-grader disappeared on her way home from the Monte Vista Elementary School, and her body was found in a drainage culvert of the Santa Ana River. Chavez said police are seeking a stocky Latino man with a bushy mustache.
