If you were in the area last night, saw anything unusual, or have any relevant information, please come forward,” Rodney urged.

Investigators are particularly interested in accounts from anyone who may have noticed activity near Michael’s home on the night preceding his death. Officers are canvassing the area, interviewing neighbors, and examining the residence for signs of forced entry or other critical clues. At this time, police have not confirmed any findings from within the house.

Commissioner Rodney acknowledged her distress following the tragic discovery, noting that she will receive counseling and support as necessary.

“Given the trauma of the incident, we are mindful of her condition and will ensure she and other affected family members receive all the support they need,” he added.

Moving Forward

With the investigation still in its early stages, Commissioner Rodney promised regular updates as investigators gather evidence and examine initial findings. “We will meet this afternoon to review what we’ve gathered, assess our immediate needs, and determine the best course of action,” he confirmed.

The community is encouraged to remain vigilant and cooperative, with the understanding that solving this crime may require collaboration from all corners of society. The police are committed to conducting a thorough investigation to bring justice for Michael and his family.
