Police Leave Scene of Accident as They Continue Johnson Investigation
The U.K. Police recently released a statement that they had officers on the scene conducting a formal investigation into the death of Adam Johnson. Now, they have provided an update, stating that they have left the scene.
"We continue to encourage the public to avoid speculation, including on social media, while we continue our enquiries and will provide updates when appropriate."
The important update also sends a direct message to those who are speculating online. After the incident, many conspiracists and outright racists took to social media to attack Matt Petgrave, the other player involved in the accident. Hopefully, the police investigation will put that to rest.
