AceShowbiz - Rapper Nelly has offered up a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the assailant who broke into his Missouri home in earlier December. Police were called to the "Dilemma" hitmaker's St. Louis mansion in the early hours of December 11, after a man was spotted "fleeing" from the residence by a female staying at the house.

Sniffer dogs and a helicopter unit patrolled the area around the property but no one was caught. Nelly, who was not present at the time of the incident, reported a number of electronics and other items missing, and he's now appealing to locals for help in identifying the male, thought to be in his 20s or 30s. Anyone with information about the burglary has been urged to contact the police.
