The Lyon County Sheriff’s Office, in conjunction with the Nevada Division of Investigation, arrested Ryan Coddington and Toni Hardin on suspicion of open murder in connection with the disappearance of Alea Clark, who was reported missing by family members on Jan. 9. On Feb. 3, human remains were recovered from the Lake Lahontan State Park. They are believed to be that of Alea. The murder investigation continues into more possible accomplices.
Coddington and Hardin will be booked into the Lyon County Jail on open murder, ex-felon in possession of a firearm, and other narcotic related offenses.
The Lyon County Sheriff’s Office’s thoughts and prayers continue to be with Alea’s family and friends.
