UPDATE Forest City Police Department: Active Investigation
*UPDATE*
We are still currently actively investigating this so I don’t have anything currently to release. However, we are following up on several leads. This is a very fluid situation as we gather more information we will send out updates. At the time of the original Nixle being sent out, Remy Jackson was a person of interest, while we have not conclusively eliminated him as a suspect, we have received conflicting stories and we are working to sort through what is truth and what is speculation. We will send updates through Nixle as we receive more information. Thank you for your patience as we work to bring a resolution to this situation.
