PHILIPSBURG--Police rejected on Wednesday media reports that a man had been arrested for the Christian Lloyd killing.
In a press release Wednesday, police spokesman Inspector Ricardo Henson assured that authorities would report any arrests in the investigation into Lloyd’s death.
Lloyd (37) was found dead at his home in St. Peters on January 25.
The Daily Herald reported Wednesday morning that a suspended policeman G.S. had surrendered to authorities for the killing. Prosecutor Rienk Mud would only say Tuesday that persons were being questioned.
Henson said, “Contrary to the reports that have been circulating in the local media, no one has been arrested by the police in connection with this case.”
He promised there would be official information once an arrest was made.
“The Police Force wants to inform the general public that when a suspect in this case is arrested, the media will be informed. Until an arrest is made, the Police Force will not be giving any further comments or information with regard to this ongoing and very sensitive investigation,” Henson said.
