He offered few details and declined to take questions from reporters, citing the ongoing investigation.
Glenn had spent nearly 20 years with the Tell City Police Department and the Perry County Sheriff's Office. "Our police department suffered a tremendous loss," Police Chief Derrick Lawalin said. "We lost a dear colleague, a dear friend. Sgt. Glenn - she's a cornerstone of our department."Tell City, population 7,500, is 150 miles south of Indianapolis.
