FOX LAKE, Ill. (AP) — Authorities believe they’ve recovered video that will help the investigation into who killed a police officer in northern Illinois.
Lake County Major Crime Task Force Cmdr. George Filenko told reporters Thursday that a private resident came forward with the video from a home security system.
Investigators have not yet viewed it because it’s on a hard drive that requires specialized technology to process. So, it’s been turned over to the Department of Homeland Security.
Filenko says the resident told investigators it shows three people near the scene of Tuesday’s killing in the village of Fox Lake and he is hopeful it will provide “significant” evidence.
Authorities are searching for three men in the killing of Lt. Charles Joseph Gliniewicz.
