(Undated) — New details, described to The Baltimore Sun, do not clear up contradictory theories about Baltimore police detective Sean Suiter’s death, according to a recent report.

Moments before his death, The Baltimore Sun reports, Suiter can be seen on surveillance cameras pacing back and forth on the street. He then runs out of view and into a vacant lot behind where he was found dead.

Suiter, who lived in Conewago Township, York County, was found dead by his partner after the November 15 shooting in west Baltimore.

He had been shot with his own gun.

Investigators are not ruling out suicide as a possibility.

“The realistic version of this is that there are two things that are possible: suicide and murder,” one source told The Baltimore Sun. “I could convince anybody why it’s a murder, and I could convince anybody why it’s a suicide.”

Read the full report, including other tips the investigation has uncovered on The Baltimore Sun’s website.
