Sean Suiter, 43, was fatally shot in the head on November 15th and authorities said there was evidence of a struggle, The Baltimore Sun reported.
Baltimore Police Commissioner Kevin Davis said the acting U.S. attorney told him that Suiter was set to testify before a federal grand jury the next day after he got shot about a case that alleged cops in his city had conspired with officers in Philadelphia to sell cocaine and heroin seized from the streets of Baltimore, according to Philly.com.

“Detective Suiter was not the target of any ongoing criminal investigation,” Davis said.

Davis said authorities have no reason to believe Suiter’s killing was connected to his pending testimony, according to The Baltimore Sun.
