Via Newsweek:
The September death of an Illinois police lieutenant will be ruled a suicide on Wednesday morning after a full-on manhunt and lengthy, expensive investigation for his alleged killers, sources tell WGN-TV.
Joe Gliniewicz, 52, an officer in Fox Lake, Illinois, died on September 1 in what authorities believed to be an altercation with three unidentified suspects.
At the time of the incident, Lake County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Christopher Covelli told Newsweek Gliniewicz was out on a foot pursuit, following what he said were two white males and one black male, and had lost radio contact. When backup officers arrived, they found Gliniewicz shot dead.
