LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Authorities say a 20-year-old man is expected to be charged with murder in connection with the death of a professional dancer who had been reported missing six days ago.

West Covina police said bail for Philip Von Wade -- who is scheduled to be arraigned Monday -- has been set at $1 million.

Wade stands accused in the death of Rahkeem Amani Reyes, whose body was found in a remote area in Azusa Canyon Saturday.
