*IN THE LINE OF DUTY* OFFICER DOWN

The investigation into Lt. Gliniewicz's death has taken a strange and surprising direction.

The three guys in the surveillance video who met the vague description of the suspects he claimed (via radio) to be pursuing before his death have been identified. They have been cleared.

The coroner has said that police are holding information that he needs before he can make a formal ruling as to the manner of death. The coroner says he can't rule out suicide and he can't rule out accident and he can't rule in homicide.

It seems there's evidence and/or suspicion that Gliniewicz may have committed suicide and staged it to appear as being killed in the line of duty. Or, possibly, he accidentally shot himself that night.

All possibilities are being investigated and the case remains open, with a greatly reduced task force dedicated to it.

The family has not yet been interviewed and are being given time to grieve. They will be questioned soon, according to the Chief of the Major Crimes Task Force.

UPDATE:
He committed suicide and staged it to look like murder, that's the official ruling expected to be delivered at a press conference to be held later today.

Reports indicate that Gliniewicz was experiencing personal issues and was the subject of an ongoing law enforcement investigation of him when he died. I don't know how much detail will be given at the press conference, but will post video of it here when it's available.
