A $10,000 reward is being offered as police investigate the stabbing death of 77 year old Eleanor Bowles.

The elderly woman was found dead around 5:30pm Saturday in the garage of her Buckhead home, which police say is located in a gated community.

According to APD Deputy Chief Charles Hampton, Bowles' son had come home to visit her for the holidays. "This is not a way that a family should have to spend their holiday season," said Hampton, "mourning and grieving the death of a loved one."

Authorities say they believe Bowles was inside the home at 6 Paces West Terrace NW when someone tried to steal her luxury SUV.

Bowles' vehicle, a 2021 Lexus RS350, was later recovered in DeKalb County.
