Drop Pin on current location

Question

I am building an iOS app and need to be able to place a pin where the user currently is! For some reason I have been having an awful time getting it to work! I tried the following code but was faced with an error.

- (MKAnnotationView *) mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView viewForAnnotation:(id <MKAnnotation>) annotation{

    if (annotation == mapView.userLocation)
    {

        MKPinAnnotationView *annView=[[MKPinAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:annotation reuseIdentifier:nil];
        annView.pinColor = MKPinAnnotationColorRed;
        annView.animatesDrop=TRUE;
        annView.canShowCallout = YES;
        annView.calloutOffset = CGPointMake(-5, 5);
        return annView;
        [annView release];



    }
}

The error was: Control May Reach End of non-void function.

Thank you so much for the help! ' Appreciate it!

The following code works fine in the Xcode iPhone simulator:

#import "ViewController.h"
@import MapKit;

@interface ViewController () <MKMapViewDelegate>

@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet MKMapView *mapView;

@end

@implementation ViewController

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];

    [self.mapView setDelegate:self];
    [self.mapView setShowsUserLocation:YES];
}

- (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView didUpdateUserLocation:(MKUserLocation *)userLocation {

    // zoom to region containing the user location
    MKCoordinateRegion region = MKCoordinateRegionMakeWithDistance(userLocation.coordinate, 800, 800);
    [self.mapView setRegion:[self.mapView regionThatFits:region] animated:YES];

    // add the annotation
    MKPointAnnotation *point = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init];
    point.coordinate = userLocation.coordinate;
    point.title = @"The Location";
    point.subtitle = @"Sub-title";
    [self.mapView addAnnotation:point];
}

@end
